    So I'm assuming, well hoping, with the new loom, I can do a third function of just soley running the compressor.
    so in the quote from me above i talk about your pump up air lines. basically its a closed pneumatic circuit. Your compressor is switched from the pressure switch as a safety and will cut in and out according to the pressure in the lines. If you only have airlocks then when you first turn the compressor on it has to pressurise the locker air lines to the solenoids then the pressure switch cuts out the compressor and the airlines are charged with 120psi. You flick on the airlock and the solenoid opens to send air to the locker to activate it and the pressure drops in the lines and the compressor starts because the low pressure switch activates. happy days.

    If you now run air lines to the engine bay, the back and each side and fit a female Nitto type plug that shuts off when not connected that line will now need to pressurise when you first turn the compressor on. when it holds 120psi the compressor will cut off. If you plug in an airless to pump up your tyres the compressor will start automatically as it now lost pressure. Your just adding more lines, more air. the circuit doesn't care if its an airlocker or a tyre.

    Hope that helps mate.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
