I believe JD is still using the Mi-T-M compressors. They're built in a Chinese place called IOWA!! Actually Peosta, IA, which is between Dyersville & Dubuque. Now, I understand some components may be made in China. I don't know if Honda 1 cyl engines are built in US or China.

You can call & talk to people at the factory or headquarters. They speak "Iowa-ese", which is fairly easy to understand. You can call or email any of the company/factory principals here:

They might enjoy hearing your recommendations for their product. Why not make the call & report back? They invite you in the video below to call them with concerns. I believe they read AgTalk also.

Here's their website:

Here's a video of their facility, manufacturing, and assembly lines. It's amazing how much the people working there look like "us".
