Air Compressor Cylinder Gasket leak
Finally hooked up My NorthStar 7 horse compressor and noticed a small puff of air coming from the top of the cylinder head. Are these gaskets easy to replace, has anyone ever done one and finally will it damage my pump if I don't fix it soon?
Thanks, Chet

If you have a head gasket leaking it will only get worse. It is not too dificult to change with ordinary tools.
When you say the top of the head, normally the top is solid metal. If the gasket were leaking it would blow out the side of the head. Now if a manifold gasket were leaking it could blow upwards.
