Message	Sorry MAD_96TT I don't mean to steal your thread but I have a quick question that maybe someone could answer, didn't want to start a complete thread for this. Could anyone with some knowledge about air compressors tell me if it's alright to leave the tank full or should it be emptied out after it's been turned off? Reason I am asking this is that I have not used my air compressor in a long while and wondering if I should empty the compressed air out. I have nightmares about that happening...I'd be the poor bastard you'd hear about on the news that gets killed by a softball-size chunk while spreading out my body over the hood and screaming "Nooo!"

Probes suck, that's just all there is to it. - 300ZXpert (someday) on April 04, 2005 at 11:35 PM P.S. You REALLY are on here at ALL hours! And I thought I was bad! :) - zmenon on August 16, 2005 at 3:06 AM LOL...2+2 drivers should grow mullets..."Business in the front...party in the back" ;) - BradZ (FL) on November 29, 2005 at 4:45 PM
