I have both my compressors set up with a motor starter I had been lead this is the way to go to keep the motor form killing itself to the point it was not repairable...
This allows the pressure regulator to be a low amperage switch to work the high amperage relay this takes the hard work off the pressure switch contacts...
On my other for giggles I pulled the pop off its stuck so I need to replace it are take it apart and free it up...
This a pix of the pop off on the first stage I dunno why it there it has one in the tank..
Back in October getting ready for a hurricane I turnd the compressors on let them build up so I would have air if the power went out. I went about my businesses about 15 min later it dawned on me one was still running. It goes from 0 to 175 fast about a min are so when I got to it, it was steaming hot the pressure was at 90 WTF... I turned it off it was leaking air around the head gasket when I went to turn it back on the compressor was locked up....
I just walked away from it knowing the compressor had burnt up a few weeks later for the ell of it turned it on it fired up but would only build up to 90... I pulled the head a reed valve had broke probably got on top of a piston that's what locked it up... Part of a reed had the check valve in the take stuck open... Low bidder got the contract... A new head and a new check valve its back up and running like new other than I think the new check valve has a small leak I cleaned out the old one just have not got around to checking it out...
I still would like to see a pix of yours...
I would not be skeered of your old one on shop talk forums I read some states require the tank to be tested once a year... I think they are tested to 600PSI... I know its at least twice the rated pressure... 275 did not hurt the tank...

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
