    Pretty sure my air packs shot.......

    Looks like what we are trying to do is keep the felt ring saturated with oil. That way it lubes and keeps the bore clean with every stroke. I will stick with air tool oil. If at all possible the best thing if not and air dryer would be a water trap on the air-pak supply line. If we go buy the pm...

    Maybe when Rusty gets feeling better he can look at his repair manual. Then we can see the amount of oil his wants put in the piston chamber for servicing.

    Just make sure you use some air tool oil on the incomming air line and the square canister plug before you use it. Can be done on the work bench. I might stand the air pack up when you do the square plug and twist the whole air pack around to get the oil all over the walls of the cylinder and to...
