Winterizing Compressor Question

I'm thinking of getting one of these two DeWalt air compressors for blowing out the lines in our 65 Overlander and 09 International.

DEWALT D55168 : 1.8 HP Continuous, 200 PSI, 15 Gallon Workshop Compressor

DEWALT D55167 : 1.5 HP Continuous, 200 PSI, 15 Gallon Workshop Compressor

Would either one of these be able to do the job?

Thanks.

Yup - either one would work, the smaller one would be just fine. You could get by with an even smaller one if that's all you're buying it for. 4.5 SCFM at 100 PSI is more than enough air flow. You probably only want it set to about 40 PSI for blowing out the lines.

Ok, thanks for the input. I'll give one of these a try.
