Got Air Compressor ?'s Also - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just picked up a used air compressor that needs a little bit of work. I thought it was going to need a new pump because it was locked up but it appears it will just need a new connecting rod and the crank polished. Gonna be into it A LOT cheaper than buying a new one (even if I do have to buy a complete pump). The stats on it are 5hp/60 gallon;

SCFM

11.4 @ 40psi
9.0 @ 90psi
125psi Max

It's just for my home garage but will it be able to handle pretty much everything I need it to do? Basically just air tools, maybe a paint sprayer, a DA sander, and stuff like that?
