I agree with Hammond, clean it all up real good and go with it. It not really as bad as it seems. I've had broken valve heads, piston lands, ring sections, and all types of stuff go thru my...

Did you consider sending an oil sample off to get analyzed? Just for scientific proof? I know it doesn't make much difference at this point. Sorry man :(

As a result of this incident, COMP will be adding grease to the O-ring that seals the compressor cover to the back plate. This will allow for the cover to rotate much easier once the bolts are...

Even with the rarest problems they're adapting their production methods to avoid future issues. Now that's a great company to do business with. No pointing fingers at the consumer or production/R&D...

Absolutely! I am really impressed with how this company handles themselves, and their customers. Unbelievable customer service, to go along with superb/fast communication.
