As others have mentioned, that compressor may be too small to drive an
impact wrench. Harbor Freight has an electric impact for sale, which is
supposed to deliver 200# foot pounds. Just plug it in, and no compressor
needed. It's rather long, from back to socket so it won't fit in some
spaces.
For your application, how about a socket and a long breaker bar? Impact
wrenches do have the advantage of "rattling" which tends to break up rust.
With a breaker bar, you may need to heat up the nut.

gallon @90psi air compressor. i don't yet
have an air impact wrench. what should i look for in terms of psi
when i go to buy one, such that i can use that air compressor to drive
the impact wrench to loosen the bolt? tia.
