Do air compressors need rings serviced etc?
I have a supposed 15cfm Ingersold air compressor.
It seems to take forever to pump up and wont keep up with my small sandblaster which is supposed to require 12cfm
Does this have valves or something to be serviced?

Sorry mate I know they have rings what I meant to ask is do they rings often need servicing? What sort of hours should they run before needing replacement?
