My little Husky pancake compressor bought the farm a couple of days ago. I think I've got the problem narrowed down to the pressure switch. I can find a generic adjustable switch for around $20, plus shipping.
What do you all think? Switch the switch, or move up to a Campbell-Hausfield "hot dog" oiled compressor? Budget's a bit tight right now.
I do have a much larger C-H compressor I inherited from my father, but I need to install 220 in my shop before I can use it. Currently my shop gets all its power from a 10-ga extension cord, so I have to count the amps pretty carefully.
One other compressor question, just out of curiosity: What's the advantage of twin tanks over a larger single tank? Looks like the two tanks are connected without any sort of valve between them, so what's the point?
Thanks again,
