I recently purchased the Craftsman oilless air compressor and air guns tool kit. It came with a bottle of oil (and people have told me not to forget to oil after I am done) but I can not figure out WHAT I am supposed to oil. The manuals all say these are oil less tools that don’t require oiling. So…what should I oil????
My husband is a mechanic and I want to get him an air compressor for christmas so that he can use his impact tools. How many lbs should the air compressor be to have this capability and where can I find good ones at?

Antique air compressor is a Milwaukee air power pump. The John Lauson is a 1.5 hp gas hit-and-miss engine. If anyone has information on the use of this air pump, please reply.
For a custom project and due to limited space and light weight requirements I need to find the smallest and lightest automotive type compressor that is made for production autos that I can acquire in the USA. Thanks ahead of time for any help.
i was playing around with an air compressor, the part you use to fill up an automobile tire and i pushed my thumb on it, my father told me to stop because i could get air bubbles in my blood stream. i was doing it for about a good 2 minutes.. then i did i did it again. could it harm me now ??, this was about 5 hours ago. he said the air bubbles could go to your heart or brain and cause death. would it affect my thumb first before anything ??
This month we have a cracker of a DVD for you as Roothy heads off to LandCruiser Mountain Park with a bunch of keen Forumites.

Mark Allen shows us three awesome custom trucks, including an insane HiLux you might have seen in the competition circuit, a well kitted out Jeep Cherokee and a touring Toyota LandCruiser 100 Series. I help you save some of your hard earned cash in a DIY vehicle pre-trip preparation guide plus he have a look at buying a used HiLux. Roothy cooks up a storm in the bush from the back of Milo plus we have a look at tyre tips, exhaust jacks and air compressors.

“SIT” is a newly developed, very simple, inexpensive and reliable system for Self-inflating Tires. SIT is an integral tire component that uses atmospheric air to automatically inflate the tire. As a main source of energy it uses only wheel rotation, so there is no compressor or similar additional device needed. This ensures maintenance-free, constant tire pressure over the lifetime of the tire, with great benefits. It reduces tire wear, increase fuel economy, makes your drive more safe and steering more accurate. Note: In the US alone, 4.5 million tires have to be replaced before their designed lifespan as a result of under-inflation. 87% of all tires have a history of under inflation. Poor tire pressure also costs US an extra .7 billion in fuel annually. Source: www.selfinflatingtire.com
Here’s another video of a sprinkler winterization in action! This is a Hunter PGP that is getting blown out. The trick is to use a very high volume of air (cfm) to push all the water out and keep that head popped up. You want to avoid high pressure that can cause damage to the sprinkler systems connections and the gears inside the heads. Wonder why a lot of your heads aren’t moving in the spring after you got that cheapo winterization? working on our www.sprinklerwinterizing.com page but in the meantime check us out at www.BestIrrigationInc.com
I got a 20 gallon 150 psi air compressor, and woundering if i can run it in my van without having to use a gas generator for power. It’s supposively 5 hp motor, but it’s a cheapy, (harbour freight, mr. seconds), so it’s probobly a true 3.5 hp or around there. Will one of those 1200 watt inverters off my van battery work, (or tell me watt needed) and if so, about how much run time will i get before it auto shuts off to save my battery????? Thanks guys.
