What oil to use in my Speedaire Compressor?

I have a speedair model 5Z185B air compressor(model #on the pump itself is 2Z499C. I need to know what type of oil to use for an oil change.

Hi Perry and thanks for writing in.

It were me, I wouldn't obsess about the oil. If my compressor was out of warranty, I'd just visit the local compressor shop and pick up enough of their compressor-rated oil for the job.

On the other hand, if you want specific brand advice (particularly if the compressor is still under warranty) visit this page, click on the Speedaire link in the nav bar, and follow the guidelines to find your closest Speedaire depot. Give them a shout. They'll give you specific advice.

Cheers,

Bill
