Compressor Runs But Won't Compress - Can it be repaired? (Central Pneumatic 95275)

This Harbor Freight Central Pneumatic Model 95275 100PSI 3 Gallon Pancake Compressor cost me $5 second hand. The motor runs but it will not build air beyond a few PSI. We'll diagnose the problem and show you how to fix it if you have the same issue.

Here are the replacement rings I bought, but they may not be the perfect option (see note below!): https://amzn.to/47QkCSA

IMPORTANT NOTE!
In the video, I measured the old SILICONE rings with my calipers to order new rings, but this of course wasn't perfect. The manual for this unit gives the dimensions of replacement head rings. They are two different sizes as follows:
TOP RING: D 31.5mm x 1.8mm
BOTTOM RING: D 31mm x 2mm
Finding these exact dimension of silicone rings might be difficult, but given the ease of replacement and low cost of rings, I highly recommend keeping spare rings on hand for these units. Be sure to buy SILICONE rings, as they are high temp capable.
