I HAVE A kARGARD COMPRESSOR built in 1969.
I have done some work to it for a friend and have one item left to address, that has me dumbfounded !
I seem to have more oil in the air than I should.
I know you do get some , but there seems to be more there than I would expect.
My major concern is that I have no idea where the oil is coming from.
The compressor is attached to the engine but there is no dipstick or any where to check the oil level.
I have no problem having some oil in the system BUT MY MAJOR CONCERN IS WHERE THE OIL IS COMING FROM, we all know what happens if you run anything out of oil !
Thank you in advance for the response !
