Sealik Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Pulled these out of the 510 for a tune up. They sound a little dry.... :D It has a plug on it for oil...wondering what grade of oil...and how much? Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 typed "air horn oil" into google...got this. http://meisterindustries.com/Media/Specifications/Maintenance.pdf Quote Link to comment
Sealik Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Yup...got that yesterday. Just skimmed through it though, assuming it was for a different horn...but, I guess the same principles apply. 3 in 1 oil? Quote Link to comment
Sealik Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Actually....I have some air tool oil, gonna try that Quote Link to comment
Sealik Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Oiled it up...zippo. Took the compressor apart, looks good with no obvious wear. Cleaned it up....notice there are 3 'wings' that can be flipped/rotated if they wear out, on the eccentric hub. Interesting how it creates the air :) Anywho...reassembled....zippo...???? Then I blew off the base to look at the wiring connections....yup...wired wrong. Never assume green is ground and white is hot... :D Hooked it up to the battery....Holy crap, VERY LOUD... was not expecting that... :frantics: .... :lol: :lol: Dogs bolted.....and the migrating geese in the sky did a 180 and headed the other direction... :cool: 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Good stuff. I was on the fence about the air horns in my 521. I think they might be a permanent fixture if I can yield the same results. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
metalmonkey47 Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 I used to have air horns neighbors pissed me off so I bought the most annoying thing I could http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gDEwpDP8PE Quote Link to comment
