Got me, but curious if you find out. If you can't see anything, wondering if it just had to do with shipping, almost something to hold the handle in place so it's not bouncing or something along that line.
You have some cool tool kits with these cars you have.

OK. I take it this is an oil-less compressor and you do not see any leaks. It's weird that it doesn't pop the first time but it will during fill-ups. Let me see what I can find because I am lost why it wouldn't pop the first time on initial start but fill-ups it does.
