So...I've been considering buying an air compressor for the garage for years and I think I'm about ready to pull the trigger on purchasing one. I'm planning on doing the a/c r&r on the W116 in the next couple of weeks and I will need compressed air to blow out the lines, plus I would like the option of using an impact wrench for any future projects....really I just want an excuse to finally buy one!

I've searched Sears, Harbor Freight, Northern, and Home Depot. I'm not really sure what I should be looking for on PSI, HP,holding capacity and if the brand is really that important.

If anybody has any advice on what would be a good set-up for moderate use, or could tell me what you've got in your garage...and if you are happy with it or not...I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!
Sam
