Title: Compressor shelf life Post by: bubba on July 17, 2008, 10:06:43 pm Whats the shelf life of a new compressor? I bought one from Eric over a year ago, and never installed it. I am getting around to installing it finally. I want to make sure there is no shelf life issue.

i"ve pulled mchines out of barns that have been sitting for over 20-30 years and after some new wiring they fire right up..

Title: Re: Compressor shelf life Post by: bubba on July 19, 2008, 05:44:27 am I'm sure the warranty is up.. I don't expect any problems with it. I may just get around to finally installing it and I didn't know about the oil inside... I guess a good vacuum should stir it all up pretty well.
