Re: Rust Therapy - 62 C-10

Scored this air compressor on Craigslist yesterday - $100 for a 2012 60 gallon Ingersoll Rand Air Compressor.

PO says that everything works, but the motor trips the breaker when he uses it at his shop. Monday I will get this thing plugged in at my shop to test for myself, but it got me to thinking...

In your experience, IF the motor is indeed the culprit, is a direct replacement of the motor a more cost effective solution vs rebuilding or repairing the old one? Especially when considering down time, longevity of repairs, etc?
