Hey guys,

I read all the posts regarding endless air's last night, seems they were referring to compressors from a Sierra.

Would it work with a compressor from a Baleno??

I know the sanden is a winner in the old endless air setups but i was trying to keep costs down (I already have the baleno compressor and installed). I did this many times in my old patrol and we used hitachi units with no dramas at all. All we did is chuck a table spoon of oil down the intake every 5 uses or so.

You're welcome to go through the pain but you are wasting your time in my opinion. I don't know anything about MQ compressors, but Suzuki compressors are all vane compressors as far as I am aware and from my experience die very quickly.

It's honestly no effort to try.
I did read all of your posts and you seem to know your stuff.
I'm not sure how the Hitachi unit works but I never had one seize.

I guess I can always give it a go and report back.

It won't seize- it just won't pump any air without adding increasing amounts of oil, up until the point it's not shifting air any more, just oil.
