Introduction: Homemade Oil/Air Pump From Car Parts

About: Hi I'm Joe and welcome. I love to make Homemade Tools & More. I will have many things to put on the Instructables for you to gander at. I hope you enjoy there educational value and have fun. Take care and God …

This is a homemade Oil/aAir pump I originally made for my foundry to pump oil but then later just use it to air up my tires around the house.
It work great and airs tires up very quick and it's not loud at all.
I just used an old ac pump off a truck I scrapped and a 3/4 motor I had also off an old furnace.
I had a metal box that was a printer switch box and some cheap parts from radio shack.
Now I used my homemade plasma cutter and cut the top off an old air compressor to use as a plateform but you can just use a 2x6 or 2x12 or just any kind of wood you want according to your scrape pile.
I welded to my base but if you use wood just use some bolts and washers.
Hope you enjoy and have fun.
