Let's say you got your hands on a compressor, were very excited and carried it badly, so that oil started spurting out the tubes in a fizzly, messy way, well before you cottoned on to what was happening. How bad a scenario is this? Would a small amount of oil leak ruin the beast, or could it still be run? Any danger in moving forward? It's ok if it takes forever for an answer, or if you can't offer one. Thanks for what you already have shared!
