Does anyone still have a Jetsam Baby Booster? Or, if you had one in the past, I'm wondering about maintenance of the booster now that it's been long discontinued.

Mine has been running just fine for years, but recently started stuttering long before it should. Specifics, drive gas 140psi (clean with filters inline), supply tank pressure 1000psi, booted 19cf tank pressure 1500 - it starts stuttering.

I tried the things in the manual, like carefully checking and tightening all plugs and lines, and tried pulling off the line that connects the two sides together - that stopped it and if I reconnected it worked again for a few minutes.

Just wondering if any past users had this issue and how they fixed it. I'm reluctant to open up the unit but realize I probably have to do that and clean the area around the reed valves, but again am reluctant.

Thanks in advance,
 
Mate see all that stuff on your back you're diving, see where you live, so pull the booster apart and fix it
