new compressors
well my old compressor took a dump and started oiling so i ordered a new pump. replaced all my lines and flushed out the tank. finally got the new pump installed and it went to oiling right off. new one will be here monday.
but i thought i would share a little trick i learned from my compressor guy back in the 70's . if your painting this is important. when you buy a new compressor or replace a pump always loosen the supply line from the pump to the tank. if the pump is oiling it will seep at the fitting and save your air lines. had i ruined 140 ft of new lines i would have been really pissed off
ingersol rand sent a new one out no questions asked. good folks .
I believe this was somewhere around 2015, Rick, Rosie and Johnboy
