Re: Adding a second air tank to a compressor

Used it today to pop off the 32mm axle nuts on by buddy's 94 Civic to replace both CV joints. Worked great! I'm happy. It sure is nice to have air tools. Real time saver.
So if anyone is thinking about getting this compressor for light duty work, go for it. For $100, I couldn't be happier!
One thing I'm curious about. When I use my impact gun, I can hear the hose kind of "re-pressurize" itself after using the gun. So I hit the gun, let go, and I can hear the air hose (25" 3/8" hose) quickly fill up with air. Makes the same noise as if you had the shut off valve from the tank turned off and the tank full, and you turn the valve and fill up the air line.
I'm wondering, why does it do this? Do I have too small of a hose? Do the cheap HF fittings I'm using not have enough flow? Or is this just normal for a small tank setup?
