EcoRenovator - View Single Post - I bought a 74 year old compressor today on Market place.

The oil pressure was low and lower when hot.
I looked up the oil that Quincy recommended you use 30 weight. I bought some Quincy oil.
that is 30 weight compressor oil. Now it is very happy I had to lower the oil pressure.
Even when hot it has great oil pressure. I will switch to using this oil.
This compressor is doing a great job running the shop.
