Have a small 20lb. sand blaster and never enough air. I have a couple of smaller compressor units in the basement but the air runs out in a couple of minutes. Stop and start. I used to rep Emglo compressors many years ago and always thought how nice a big unit would be. At the auction a month ago there was my baby! Four of us bid on it till I got it for $280.oo It is a D8HGA-8P and that is with a 8hp Honda and four piston pump! I have enough experience with these pumps to know how to listen to the valves as you slowly pull it over. It's a good one! Got her home and replaced the Pilot valve. Strip the gas tank and solder fill and power sand it flush. Painted with Cub cream paint and hooked her all up. Added the pipes and valves and regulator for all of my air needs and then reveded her up.....HHHOOOwwweeeee! This is a Godzilla of a pump. From 0 to 125 in 15 seconds with 8 gallons of air. I am doing a happy dance and now the sandblaster only stops for a refill. Today this compressor is list at $2,124.oo . Still need to repaint the belt guard. I know it is not a great big tractor but now I can sand blast one! Jeffcat

While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
