Turned out to only have about three gallons of water in it!
Replaced the drain, replaced a pop-off valve, (it has two) removed a tool oiler from inline, (reservoir cracked and leaking air) cleaned the contacts on the pressure switch and adjusted it, and cycled it a few times to make sure it was working properly.
Then, we cleaned the floor of the shed, hauled out a bunch of stuff of no discernible value that had accumulated, knocked down all the cobb and spider webs, and ordered new compressor oil and some LED replacement tubes for the light fixture.
My oldest grandson showed up just in time to help with cleaning and fetching stuff!!
I mostly sat on a stool and directed traffic and diagnosed the issues as we came to ‘em.
NOTE FOE EYESA!!: Get someone to install a “hard start” capacitor on your compressor motor and see about a slightly heavier compressor oil. The hard start will give your motor a little more “OOMPH” and you know what better oil will do.
I ain’t QUITE as grumpy as I was before we got started this morning…

Gotta go out and work on my compressor today!! The drain has quit working and I figure it’s gonna have several gallons of water in the tank.
Top that off with the fact that the pressure switch is acting up!!
SO!! Hatfield and I are going to fix everything and service the motor and change oil in the pump! Got a brand new switch and a remote drain kit that is supposed to prevent clogging.
This AIN’T one of my favorite chores!!

Shotgun Boogie knows a guy!! The one that Tex referred to.
I’m not sure if he’s got ‘em here yet. The maker is in Germany and I think they were working on availability here.

I’ve forgotten an item or ten over the years. Mostly made do. I’ve bought what I needed at the “yard sale” or “swap meet” on a number of occasions, including one of my favorite hats!
I even bought a short stroke kit at one meet and ended up using parts of it before the match was over!!
Most of us try to bring extra, (everything) so you’re usually pretty safe.
Guns, leather, ammunition, cart, clothes, eyes, ears and yourself are the essentials. Your meds, (if needed) snacks, a hat, sunscreen, (often necessary) extra everything, and more if you think of it!

I sang that song in high school in vocal music class!!
It was one of my instructor’s favorites! Our choral music ensemble toured briefly in the southeast and sang at the White House while he was the director!
