Hi all I picked up from the local auction a Ingersol Rand Model B Compressor from 1964 here in the UK. The unit had been tipped on its side so all the oil has leaked out from the pump
After doing a lot of looking online I have seen several different oil types mentioned does anyone here know what type of oil the pump uses?
Given the age of the tank I am going to have it hydro tested when I know the compressor works I believe the pressure switch cuts out at 140 or 150 I was going to replace it and lower this to be safe to 100psi would this be OK?
Thanks in advance
