In 1997, I bought a campbell hausfeld air compressor w/20 gallon tank for a few hundred bucks. I left this one outside for easy drive-up access.
So, now, after 20 years of use....the "head" gaskets have failed. I can buy new gasket set for about $40.00 including shipping.
My concern... is the tank may be rusted from the inside and have a weak spot and possibly blow-out. (no expiration dates stamped on tank, that I can see).
Would you spend the $40 to get the air compressor running and take the chance...or just buy a new one?????
