MANY years ago I was at the contractor supply and the fella said "we have a great deal on these little Senco gas compressors!" And he was not lying. I bet it has been 20 years or more and the darn little thing, which cost me about $250, is giving me issues for the first time. Issue one is that one of the tanks has a pin hole. Issue two is that the engine does not want to stay running. I don't want to put any money into it, I just want to replace. Could use some recommendations of good units. My criteria are:
(1)gasoline powered because I use it a lot and I use it where there is no power and I do not want to haul the big Honda genny every time I want to use it. Besides, a lot of the places I use it electricity can be a disadvantage.
(2)it cannot cost a small fortune because circumstances this year have left me a little light in the free cash department. Shock and dismay, I have even had to stop auctioning!
(3)needs to be truly portable. The easier to move around the better. I will throw it on a truck, trailer, in a loader or just move it by hand. Ease of transport is big.
Any help??? Doesn't seem to be a ton of companies selling these anymore. My old one was small, light, compact. Basically a 24" cube shape, twin tanks, Honda engine with a handle on top. Handled one tool at a time, period. Appreciate comments.
