You can get one at McMaster or make your own.

Does the "push valve" release the air from the sprinkler valve just as fast as the air tool type?

Do you mean a blow gun? Well, the size of a blowgun threads is 1/4 NPT and the push valves are............I will let you figure it out.

Wasn't sure if the exhaust was reduced in size.

OR you can make your own big enough to smack with a sledgehammer.

When you mod a sprinkler, all that is doing is releasing the air in one of the equallization chamber, Is this correct.
Thanks for the help
