NEVER heard of it, got any specs and pictures?

NEVERMIND, quick google search and i found it. That thing is HUGE!! It would probably pump ALOT of air but tryin to mount that thing on bagged truck or car with limited room would be a PITA.

Mine is a york 210 and I love it. There are 3 different models of the 210. short stroke, medium stroke, and long stroke, all put out different ammounts of air. You can determine which is which by looking at the shaft where the clutch fits on.

OK so what do you look for on the shaft to tell what stroke it is?

You seem to be very knowledgable about things.. I found an engine driven I was thinking about picking up.. Its not a 210.. but they say it is compariable to one.. All I have is the part number off of it..

The Paccar part # is: K318-137-6 A 3253021

Opinioins? Thats all foreign to me..

The reason the yorks are most desirable are because they have their own "crankcase" if you wanna call it that.They hold their own oil. You can pretty much turn any a/c compressor into an air pump. BUT all other pumps besides the york use oil in the freon to lubricate and cool the pump so you would have to use an external oil fogger to lube the pump and when your tryin to make things clean in your engine bay all the extra fittings and an oiler kinda look like crap.

I have heard and seen some people use Sanden pumps because they are smaller than a york. I have seen some people put a grease zirk on the sanden and just pumping grease in it to keep it lubed. I dont know how well that works because i have no experience with them.

I did some searching for that part number and nothing came up. I would just stick with a york if you can fit one. They are the most reliable and all you gotta do is add oil to them every month or so.

Dusty, nobody will have any ideas what a paccar part number is. Paccar doesnt build compressors first, second companies like bendix and haldex make the compressors for the truck companies. Third, most vehicles that your talking about, class 5-8 trucks built by paccar use an air system for brakes as well as thier air suspensions. This being said typically all these type of compressors run 100% of the time, while the engine is running. They use a pressure regulator and a blow off to keep thier air tanks full. This means there is no clutch on the compressor just a pulley.
What we need for our rides is something with a clutch so when the tanks are full the clutch will dissengage from the compressor and allow it to freewheel with minimal drag on the engine. Also, what we are talking about are compressors that have thier own oil sump for thier own lubrication. Some of the class 5-8 compressors bolt to the side of the engine and share engine oil. THis obviously would be difficult to get to work in our applications.
I pulled my 210 off a 79 ford E150 in the local pull a part and took it home for $28. Of course I had to figure out where to mount it and then make my own bracket but it works and looks factory....

Yeah, I don't know that much about these compressors. I just started reading about this and thinking about getting one a few days ago..

I coppied that part number from an auction I found on e-bay.. The auction says its a york but the gave that part number towards the bottom where people can ask questions..

Here is a site I found awhile back with quite a few EDC parts.
