It survived 40 years of neglect, and now you want to switch brands ?
I got tired of never having enough air, so I picked up a used 80 gallon "7.5
hp" Craftsman (made by Ingersoll-Rand) from Craigslist for $500 (including
50' of hose) and so far I'm pretty happy with it. But I do keep the tank
drained, even though I haven't yet hooked up the automatic drain valve.
BTW, the leak turned out to be a cracked fitting at the drain valve. Guess
it needs more support.
