Thread: 3 Gallon Air Compressor

Is a 3 Gallon air compressor from sears powerful enough to tear down an l67 on an engine stand? I seen 1 for sale for $60 at sears on black friday. Wanna use it for the crank bolts, cam bolts, lim bolts, etc etc. Been wanting one for the longest to make things easier rather doing things manually.


Top left on this one for $80....



Middle left 2nd row for the one for $65



Which is better?

I'd go bigger, those would be enough to get top end bolts and smaller things.

125 psi is not alot and most guns need 90-100 all the time with enough air to run more than 2 seconds.

That compressor will leave you diappointed.
