Hey, Ed; It's probably better to shut the compressor off, and drain the tank when you're not using it.
135psi is pretty high. Doesn't your pin nailer recommend a lower pressure, maybe around 70psi ?

Yeh, that's my experience as well. Those quick connects leak like crazy. I don't even worry about it; as long as I turn the power off to the compressor, the tank pressure will be released 'automatically'. See, there is a silver lining!

Geez, some guys want the World on a platter!
Just kidding, Stick. But you're right; the water is still an issue. Have I mentioned how much I detest (abhor!) those factory supplied drain fittings? Yeh, pretty sure I whined about it/them in the past...

Stick; none of those will work as a straight retro fit....the tank bottom is too close to the ground.
I've been procrastinating; replace the valve with a 90 and extend a short length of hose with a ball valve on the end. One of the members here posted a picture of something along that line, awhile back.

Charles; for something like that, wouldn't an automatic drain make sense?

Stick; what part of "procrastination" was unclear?
