Craigslist Compressor Check

I'm looking for opinions on the Rol-Air compressor in the link above. It looks to be about a 20 gallon, currently wired for 230v. I believe Rol-Air still makes a variation of this compressor today so perhaps parts are available. Talking with the seller, he says it builds and holds air just fine when he last used it.

Not to sure what it's worth, but I will probably go check it out this weekend.

Not sure about the on your looking at but, I've had a Rol Air pancake for maybe 23-24 yrs and I have never had a problem with it. Just updated the drain valve to a ball valve. The petcock had enough. Other than changing oil and regular draining the tank nothing else has been done.

Just test it when you go

I have an issue with used compressors. The problem is that you never know how often the tank was drained. Rusty tanks area hazard.

proceed with caution.
