Title: Wilkerson Regulator Growl sound
Post by: rmonks on February 16, 2015, 08:03:22 PM

On my Gauntlet I have 2-3 regulators one is a Wilkerson brand for some reason it makes a squall or growling sound as the press is indexing is this common with this regulator, I replaced one a year ago that was leaking but it would make the same sound occasionally.

Hahaha.. we named an old Challenger "the cow" as it had that same sound from the same brand of regulator. 

after replacing it never heard it again.

Its the air passing a loose or torn seal. Or something stuck in a seal. Like a woopie cushion.
