HARBOR FREIGHT CENTRAL PNEUMATIC 8 GALLON 2HP AIR COMPRESSOR - Oil Change And Form A Funnel Tool. Watch and see how I perform an oil change on a Harbor Freight Central Pneumatic 8 Gallon 2 HP Air Compressor using a Form-A-Funnel Oil Change Tool. Super easy process. Only took about 15 minutes or so to complete. Then I gave the compressor a quick cleaning.
Watch until the end for a good laugh!

Awesome!! Thanks for sharing man! So helpful!
Adam Kreutinger Thanks Bud! You Da Man!
if you take the fill plug out, it will drain faster
@@vr.vqmechanic thanks for sharing vr
Fun game: take a shot every time he says "ladies and gentlemen" 🤣🤣 nah good video man. Just changed the oil in my compressor that's the exact same as yours. I put Amsoil full synthetic signature series 5w30 in it. I don't use it enough for that to become a major problem. It is an awesome little compressor. I've been watching videos on how to modify the factory pipes and hoses to where I can use pro grade air tools. Can't wait!
Hahaha awesome game! Sounds like you got some upgrades in your future. Thanks for watching!
@@GarageGearmy Total air compressor recommends 15w40 multigrade engine oil
@@danteerskine7678 yeah, I would def use that then
I like the bonus footage!😂
Flint Layfield yeah that was pretty funny!
I had one of these given to me I need help it will only pump up to about 55psi any help would be great thanks
I would try changing the dials see if it will go any higher. Hope this helps.
10 gallon works my 1/2" impact, my palm nailer and many others. These work well. Their oil change instructions suck which is why I'm here.
They’re decent compressors for sure. Glad you found this video helpful 👍! Thanks for checking out my channel Fasnuf!
Do you mean it works without charging very much? Cause mine used to not cut on so much. And so your video in the oil change is what you suggest
@@sharonfilson6323 if you air compressor is turning on a lot you may have a slow air leak somewhere. Usually in the air hose. Check the connections and for cracks in the hose. These are the correct instructions for changing oil yes!
How often do you drain condensate water out of the tank?
I think you’re supposed to do that just about every time you use it but let’s be honest no one really does. I usually do every ten times or so! 🤷♂️ thanks for watching Kenny
I'd change the check valve to literally anything better, mine blew off ripping the threads off, definitely a hazard
Friedrich Von Eichel noted! Good to know! Thanks for watching!
Your check valve blew off? I wonder if that happens slot and did you find what went went wrong
My HF compressor like this is leaking oil between the motor and compressor body.
Is that hard to fix?
Hey Trini, If the motor housing is cracked then it’s likely you’ll be unable to fix it. May just be better off getting a new one and scrapping the old one for parts. Thanks for watching!
@@GarageGear was hoping it would just be a seal.
Thanks
@@trinifirst6702 check to see if it is leaking from a deal it if you find a crack in the housing then you’ll have your answer. Let me know how it works out for you and thanks again for watching!
Thanks every one for advice and everything. I finally was able to talk to a solid tool guy at the recommendation of an employ of Harbour freight. Names Bryant and he said same as most of the replies that it sounds to be a valve problem maybe just a seal maybe the valve itself and told me to check the flow valve for sure that is attached to the tank and has a tube to another safety release valve that sits just behind the motor and pump. Brass valves making sure there isn't a clog. He also informed me that sometimes they put a sorta cloth like filter on some of valves and they stop up pretty fast. So I checked all the valves I could see, found a little dirty sludge build in some and cleaned that. Did not find a filter of any kind. Did find alot of loose nuts, not real loose but loose, some dusty build up in the motor housing (not sure it is called that). So cleaned all dirt and grime build up ( which really was not very much) and tightened all the nuts, drained and put in fresh SAE 30 compressor oil to exactly as told in manual. Guess What !! It's working much better. I think it still is cutting on to charge a little too soon but not like it was. So I learned, just blowing it out after the days use doesn't necessarily clean it enough, check for loose anything's weekly or better if used more than I use mine, and do the maintenance prescribed in the manual. I do like this machine and for the money it rates up there with our older craftsmen ( I think was what it was). Thanks everyone
If the motor housing is cracked, are the symptoms similar too old oil etc. Thats one thing I did not check. Don't knock w if I am mechanically capable of that kind of stuff. I'll have my brother walk me through that. Cause I wondered when I felt it was still coming in too soon if there could be a bad seal or cracked anything causing it.
I had always let mine drain overnight to be sure everything is completely drained.
That’s a good idea Electric! Thanks for checking out my channel! 👍
I have the exact same model when the tank is full of air and I open the valve nothing comes out anyone know what that problem is?
I wonder if your valve is broken? did you call the company?
@@GarageGear Yes, the release valve was broken it's not made of strong materials it was broken in the closed position, a replacement was only 4$. But now it won't cut off it will keep running all the way through the red but of course I manually stop it myself by unplugging it, do it suppose to automatically stop on its own? what's wrong when it doesn't?
@@boreed5734 that’s a good question! Mine automatically shuts off! I’m not a professional with air compressors but I believe when you set the gauge to a fill point it should shut off.
We use cardboard a little cheaper great video
Good thinking! Thanks for watching!
Can anyone tell me if this central pneumatic 2 hp, 125 psi compressors fill cap should be blowing air out it's tiny little holes at the top? My machine is recharging what I believe to be too soon compared to just a few weeks ago. I am changing oil now, the air filter is like new, not bad at all. I tightened all the loose nuts and there were a few as the manual said could be wrong. I am about to turn it back on and see if it was the oil, though it really didn't look bad. Anyway if anyone can tell me of anything else need to check would appreciate good advice.
It’s technically an Air Breather Plug, not simple a plug. Yes, it should be exhausting a small amount of air.
If your garage isn't heated, you might want to switch to fully synthetic compressor oil. It flows better when cold.
Thanks for sharing Ron
30W Non-Detergent oil is what it needs
Thanks for sharing!
Funny enough. My Chinese air compressor manual recommend me to use detergent automotive 15w40 multigrade engine oils 😂😂
What type/weight of oil is used?
Fidel Damasco hey Bud!!! Good question! I checked the bottle and it said nothing about a weight or type. All it said was it was item number 68097 at harbor freight. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
30W with no additives! HF has 32oz for 7.49.
I am looking to buy this compressor but it has SOOOOOO many mixed reviews
Some ppl say it is louder than an oiless one, other ppl say it only lasts for 3 months and it shits on you, other ppl say it lasts forever......ahhhhggggrrr
John Davolta well... when you compare the components in this compressor to others found in other big box stores you’d be surprised to know that many of the same components are in them as well. Look at it this way. It’s a cheap compressor. If you’re using it for heavy duty applications then buy a better one elsewhere. For all the light duty work in my garage it works just fine. Thanks for watching!
@@GarageGear thanks for the reply. I will be using it for even lighter things than you do, so probably I should go ahead and pull the trigger.
Do you think this compressor can take the lug nut off a car? That would be the main reason I am looking to buy this over a panckake one. I like to change my own brakes and do my own tire rotation, which are only once a year.
John Davolta I would like to think it can but I’ve never tried removing lug nuts with it before. If anything it would just be running a little more during the job to build pressure due to the smaller tank. I usually use my impact driver for lug nuts. And if you’re only using it once and a while for that you’d probably be fine. Check the specifications and uses on the box/online. It should say.
@@GarageGear thanks man! That was helpful. I think I will pull the trigger and get it this week.
@@johndavolta3124 so after 2 years, how did the compressor work out? I am looking at it's replacement made by McGraw from HF. I expect it's the same unit just different name now.
