I purchased a 30 gal 3hp compressor from TSC that had been dropped and the electric motor damaged at a very good discount. I replaced the electric motor and the compressor seemed to run fine. It started blowing oil out of the vent indicating some kind of pressure in the casing. Questio1: does it matter what the rotation on the compressor is? question2: What would cause this casing pressure and oil blowing out?
