... for my air compressor?
I have taken it apart for a cleaning and lube, but the head gasket is pretty bad looking. :lol:

The black rubber o-ring there is the head gasket... :(

O-Rings are sold at most hardware stores, and tougher to find ones will be stocked at an industrial supply-type shop. But if its for that cheap plastic thing lying on your bench, why bother? :rolleyes: :lol:

Screw it. I just put it back together. I've had this $10 air compressor for about eight years now, and it's never let me down. I wired in that handy on/off switch, and upgraded the appearance with the custom K&N grafix. There ain't no other air compressor sold nowadays that can take its place, so I want it to last.
That thing is tiny. What can you use it for?

It airs up my tires at every autocross and rallycross.
I have wired a series of AA batteries to my air compressor to test it out. It pumps well. If I put my mouth on it, it blows up my cheeks.

Two lantern batteries, fool.

Lantern batteries are for fools. Real men's lanterns burn whale oil.
REAL men burn the whole whale!
did you try the Wrigley's company for a good gasket?
How about silicone?
