Default Installed MV50 issues
I installed an MV50 under the hood of my Jeep. I cannot air up all 4 of my 35s with out it over heating. Is anyone else having this same issue. If so do you have a fix? What compressors don't have this issue?

Thanks,

Damon

I have a 2011 jk with a 4"lift and 35's, mine hasnt over heated at all. Ive only had the tires for a week though. Have you went to the dealer? I dont see why your tires would cause your engine to overheat. Sounds like a coolant problem

Mine overheats quick too. Its behind my rear seat attached to a tank for my airhorn. C02 is much better for airing up quickly.

I'm guessing hes talkin about the compressor overheating and shutting off.
