Today I finally got around to firing up the free compressor I got last year. It
works reasonably well, but it does take a _long_ time to build up pressure (20
min from 0-90psi). It'll most likely be fine to run the finish nailer I bought,
but I doubt if I could run air tools for any length of time.
My question is - can I solve this by swapping out the compressor head (the
piston unit)? The tank is faily large (don't know capacity, but is about a 4
foot long 14" diameter cylinder). The motor is a 3/4HP unit. Harbor freight
sells replacemet heads, but they start at 1.5HP. Will this work?
TIA.
