Why is my King Canada 8449N discharging oil in the air?

If your King Canada Air Compressor is discharging oil in the air, it could be due to several reasons. You might have used oil with improper viscosity, in which case you should replace it with SAE30 weight non-detergent oil. Another possibility is that there's too much oil in the crankcase; drain it and refill to the correct level. Also, the compressor might be overheating because the air pressure is regulated too high. Finally, a restricted air filter could be the cause, so replace the filter.
