Dan S Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 (edited) Dears, By any chance, anybody, had the possibility to convert his battery powered tyre compressor to achieve a small air gun capability? I would like to have the chance to blow up the air from my engine or similar locations after each drive and not spending too much in adding a permanent air tank system to the car. Any ideas what we can do in this matter? Thank you in advance! Edited December 5, 2023 by Dan S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaurav Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 You can buy air blow gun with an adapter that goes on your compressor hose pipe. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Beduan-Compressor-Accessory-Connect-Couple/dp/B083F9JGFH?th=1 1 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

As the loose or dry sand can be moved while the vehicle is moving, but dry sand stuck with some fluid is hard to get out of the engine bay unless you use car wash blow gun. 1 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

Cha Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 + cheapest fix, you dont need very high pressure to make this work, and it works very well for the oil sand mixture 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke K P Posted December 6, 2023 Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) 45 minutes ago, Dan S said: Thanks Cha, will definitely give it a try this combo on my bushranger air max 3 compressor doesnt do the job... get some back pressure in the hose and get a small burst of air... then not enough airflow to move sand off my dashboard. Really need tank option (even the arb single compressor with tank should do the job) Edited December 6, 2023 by PETELCZYC PAJERO - luke typos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
