imho,those Quincy's are decent compressors,but not on par with the pressure lube pumps.for that much money I would look into a pressure lube pump.as someone has suggested look into the QR-25's with the 2 and 3 series pumps.the 2 series are single stage,while the 3 are two stage...

Lowes usually puts this same compressor on sale.I got mine for $320 out the door at the end of last year.no,it is impossible to check it if it runs,if it is not connected.hard to turn the pump too cause it's enclosed.mentioned used for 6 months,see if they have the receipt,this way you can...

what model Quincy's are you looking at? are you buying used,as 2 Quincy's brand new are pretty pricey.

pictures would be nice.gives a basic idea of what were dealing with.

what's the pump model number? looks like a 2475 pump.you can run them as a 5 horse,which would be cheaper.Baldor motors can be had from e-bay for $300 shipped.offer him $400 + the $300 cost of motor and you have a nice compressor for $700.take the pump,motor,wiring,piping out to lighten it...

looks like a VT Series Campbell Hausfeld pump.go to the CH website and click on "Service and Support" "Manuals" then type VT,you will have to click on each till you get a match. http://www.chpower.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/XManuals?storeId=10051&catalogId=10001&langId=-1

if its the VP10 pump,I don't think that one has a centrifugal unloader. http://www.gardnerdenverproducts.com/assets/0/180/132/188/f2779e8e-3712-4015-b9a9-c79f4fb91d21.pdf as Charles has mentioned,you will need to run a line from the check valve to the pressure switch. here's an example...

without pictures,it's really hard what you meant by a seal.does it look like a rubber type material just below the crank? mine has a rubber type,but its there to isolate the piping from the crankcase and prevent it from hitting the crankcase. on the centrifugal,there should a tag with...

are you sure its a Chicago Pneumatic,or you meant Champion.the VR5-8 is a Champion vertical with the R15B pump.if its a Champion,parts are available here: http://www.compressorpartsstore.com/Champion-Pneumatic-Parts-s/3.htm...

if that's the case 80% of the compressor pumps out there,as per that advise are to be avoided.some of the best pumps ever built from Quincy,Saylor Beall,Champion,Curtis,Gardner,Kellogg,Devilbiss/Devair were vertical's.that advice probably meant the newer vertical's coming out of China. a lot of...

any particular reason why you want a V-type? where are you located? check e-bay or your local craigslist.Champion has the R30D pump,it's a v-type and can be run on 7.5 hp.Saylor Beall has the 707 pump that runs form 5 to 10 hp.Quincy's Model 4125 and 5120 are V-type pumps.be on the lookout for...

lets see,$100 for the 80 gal tank,$100 for the single phase motor,$50 for the mag starter and $50 for the leaking pump.hell yeah,I'll jump on it.

here's a nice Quincy,3 phase tho: http://cgi.ebay.com/Quincy-air-compressor-5hp-3-phase-60-gal-horizontal_W0QQitemZ320362962193QQcmdZViewItemQQptZBI_Air_Compressors?hash=item320362962193&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2|65%3A1|39%3A1|240%3A1318|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50

anyone in the NJ area looking for a nice cheap compressor.no,I'm not affiliated with the seller,just passing a deal along.might want to e-mail for more pictures.can't tell what pump is on it now.could be a 703,705 or 707.It this was local to me,I'll be all over it,even tho I have 2...
