This has been talked about 1000 times I bet, but I've looked for awhile and haven't found really much help cuz all the threads contradict each other .
I'm looking for how to convert my ac to air compressor, and be reliable and last a long time. I want a oiler , and oil separator to keep oil recirculating thru the system. A lot of ppl say u need more than a tool oiler as it doesn't give enough oil, others say it is enough. As for oil separator I have yet to find one that recirculates... Any help will be great! If the ways u guys have done it! Thanks butch

You could try installing a grease zerk on the compressor and pump it full of grease, as opposed as to using the oiler. People have done that.

my experience the oiler pumps go out sooner. I have a greaseable I built. with a sanden 7. my friend has a sanden 5. mine pumps faster and quitter than his oiler which he has replaced twice in whihch he uses half the time I use mine. I use mine x2....
ill try to get some pics up for you. I do use 2 filters so I don't get grease in my VIair tank or my tools and tires. best of licuk to you Pirate 4x4 has some good right ups. but I use that sparingly

I'm not saying its the best method, im just providing an alternative option that I read about. People actually have done that and supported their opinions and methods. People using oilers believe their methods is much better. It's all about personal preferences of the owners.Originally Posted by SeriousOffroad

It's like air compressors, I would prefer oil-in-block compressors instead of oil-free compressors because they last much longer and is more stronger. Yes Yorks would be a much better choice, but I don't know if that is what he want.
What can I use besides a air tool oiler so the unit gets more lubrication!?
