    you need to see what reserve is on it, also know that with a used compressor you may be in the same situation you are now in a few weeks. dont forget that compressor you just posted from ebay is a 240 volt one...

    Yeah i know its 240...The prob with my old one is that it wasn't getting enough air to it and over heated...I dont think i would drive down to florida to get it anyways...going off to school in the end of september and wont be using it that much...i may just put a new motor in my old one....unless someone can get me a good deal maybe....lol

    if its a normal 20 gallon roll around one , then it is a 3.5-5 hp motor, which means it can be replaced for about 100 bucks at northern.. and its local

    hardest part is getting the pully set on there correctly, the only other thing is, if its a "integrated" motor or however they sold it its not so easy to fix. if it is a decent compressor it will have a pump and a motor as 2 seperate parts..
