Finally got an air compressor. Like all used things it has problems. I paid $40 for it.

#1 needs new drain plug
#2 needs new air hose.
#3 needs a new handle, the old one rusted off.

I can get a 3/8inch hose and a new drain valve for about $35.
Or I can go crazy and get a 1/2 hose for $48.

Other than that it pumps fast and quite(er) [than the modern ones] without any weird noises. It will get the job done. I'm pleased

Don't forget to grease the screw and threads on the spring compressor.
