Hi Barry, thanks for writing in. It's taken me a bit of time to respond, as I was in the process of adding a couple of pages of information about compressor oil to the site, and I wanted to get that done before I responded.

As to what type of compressor oil? Read about that on this page.

Do you have another question about compressor oil? You can post it on this page.

Cheers,

Bill

What properties has compressor oil that make it different from car engine oil?

Can I use lawnmower oil (4 stroke)if I don't have compressor oil?

Hello Martin. Welcome to you and all the folks from Ireland that visit this website.

Regarding what compressor oil to use, you can do anything you like. :-)

Would I used lawnmower oil in my air compressor. Definitely not.
