I replaced my OEM regulator after about five years. Same brand. New one works great. A bit of adivce...I installed a shut off valve between the tank and the regulator so pressure is no longer on the regulator 24/7. I leave my shop compressor on all the time so I have air whenever I need it. Old configuration had the shutoff valve after the regulator. Constant 90 psi pressure likely lead to the old regulator's seal failure after 5 years, which I believe is testimony to the OEM valve's quality. With new valve configuration, my tank holds full pressure for more than a week when not in use.
