Air compressor port pictures
My SuperCheapAuto belt-driven air compressor started leaking down (the check valve needed cleaning), and while it was apart I poked my USB endoscope/borescope/inspection camera into the tank and in the intake ports.
Attached are pics of the ports in the head, which prompted me to break out the rotary tool and open things up and smooth things out.

Probably plenty of surprises await when you go looking inside things. May have to get one of those scope thingies.
