Nice compressor for doing your own fills. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers,

What improvements did you make after you bought it from Jim?
The ocean is a lousy teacher. First you get a test, then the lesson.

Great question. :)

1. Cleaned it up, it was covered in dust and oil.
2. Replaced belt & lubed bearings on motor.
3. Re-terminated the wiring to the motor, it was strained and coming apart.
4. Serviced all of the check valves and the 1st and 2nd stage rings.
5. Replaced the oil. Replaced a few leaking fittings.
6. Installed a moisture drain system and oil change drain. it's now an easy job vs leaking oil all over the place to service.
7. Serviced the moisture separators, as they had both become packed with unspeakable muck.
8. New filter packs.
9. Replaced broken pressure gauge.
10. Found a manual.
11. Found a lovely red cart which fits it well.

Will consider any reasonable offer. :) I ended up purchasing a much larger compressor shortly after I fixed up this one so I don't need to have two of them floating around.
