Oil in air line

Post by sodfarmer »

I had to replace the pump on my air compressor last week. I had been getting some oil in the line, the compressor finally went south, so I had to replace it. Is there a good way to clean the lines or do I have to just let it clean itself out over time? Started to do some cutting today and the cuts are definitely better than I was getting.

Thanks

I had the same freakin problem about two months ago. I had to replace my sub micron filters and water trap separators. I just built up air pressure and dumped the valve a hundred times until I didn't get any more oil. I am curious to see if there is a better method.
