But I got my mind set.

For the time being I just use the shops air and connect it to the male nipple with the valve to keep the air from coming back out of the tank.

So basically you can blast your horn about 3 times between trips home to fill up your air tank? How long do you plan on running without a compressor?

After I had everything in place, I was about to drop some money on an air compressor. I was more or less testing the system for air leaks and trying to figure out what would be the compressor for my setup. So I figured to play with it a little get to work and fill the tank back up, the hard part was done easy part is the compressor for a good one not so easy on the wallet. Unfortunately there were some medical issues that needed to be sorted out and to top it my truck is in desperate need of a turbo and up pipes. Pretty much the E99 conversion kit from Riffraff. So priority over play for the moment. Hoping to have the compressor by next summer, it sucks without one but other priorities for the moment.

So you scared those people? That's not what these horns are for.
