Broke regulator shank

Screwdriver, Socket set, Wrench Set, Easy-out extractor
My compressor accidentally rolled and the regulator broke off flush with the tank. I used a screw extractor to remove the old threaded pipe from the tank. The gauges, relief valve, and chuck receiver were removed from the old regulator. I used teflon tape at each joint to assure sealing of connections on re-assembly with the new regulator and nipple.

I was able to use a easy out to remove the nipple from the tank but could not remove it from the regulator tried everything easy out heat etc. Ordered my regulator and nipple which was super simple and had it I believe in two business days. The repair was straight forward and easy. I did refer to the diagram on your website and it was very helpful. Glad I found you guys

Had to remove the entire motor, but replacing the regulator was fairly easy. Just make sure to unplug the power cord and drain the air from the tank before starting the repair.
