Hello Folks,
For a few years now, my 026 has been dribbling bar oil from the output tube when inactive/sitting after use and it's getting worse. It appears that after use, pressure remains in the oil tank and relieves itself slowly by drooling oil all over the bench or in the case until pressure is gone. I see a pressure relief valve (maybe?) under the output tube, it appears to not be doing its job. I put test pressure in the tank and it did not relieve. I put test vacuum in the tank and that did not relieve either. Where do I go from here? Many thanks for any answers to my question.
