My 10 year old Husky air compressor started leaking oil from under the motor. Part of me wanted to just replace it, but the other part thought I might be able to fix it.
The model number is TA-2530B.
Perhaps this video will be helpful for anyone who might need to dismantle this particular compressor. Let’s give it a try!
