This is only quasi GMC related, but while working on the coach, i noticed my impact gun was slowing down. I have a 240v Ingersoll TS4 compressor that popped the breaker. I reset and found that its drawing 75amps at startup, sounds and smells a little funny while running, before it pops the breaker about 10 seconds in.
It does build pressure while it runs
I'm hoping start or run capacitor. I figured I'd replace both to be sure, but I'm super hesitant as its a 240v motor.
So, any advice on what to look for before i decide to replace the caps? Now does one discharge a 240v cap?
