I'm planning to go pick up a used air compressor on a flatbed trailer.
It's a 60 gallon vertical tank with a oil-lubricated reciprocating type
compressor on top. Is it okay to lay it down on it's side for 20 minutes
or will oil drain into places it's not supposed to?
Thanks,

It's not a problem to lay it down....I did my 60gal compressor the same way
and had no problems with it.
