It's definately a York. The model isn't all that important if your just filling tires IMO. They will all be faster than just about any 12v compressor. Hook the clutch up to a 12v battery and make sure it engages. If it does your good to go. Pour some 30w motor oil in and run it!
 
View attachment 1244762 Ok @NLXTACY!! You WILL have another buyer if I can get some questions answered. I searched for awhile but couldn't find the answers I was looking for.

First off I found what I think is a York 210 in a local junk yard off a 82 Ford Econoline and bought it. I found a couple sites that state that these are one of the vehicles that the Yorks are installed. Unfortunately it doesn't have a plate on it but looks like it may be a rebuilt one because on the back of it reads May '97. It is identical to every pic I've seen of these things. Pic at top for verification.

I have 2 questions.

1. When I pulled it out I accidentally removed one of the side "oil" bolts and when it tipped over bright green fluid poured out of it like from leak detection products. I thought the oil section was independent of the freon section?

2. If I haven't bought the wrong one or a "bad" one what's the best way to clean one of the suckers out and is regular motor oil what everyone is using?

3. Is there a way to bench test these?

As long as I have the right one I'm ready to pull the trigger on a kit but want a little reassurance first that I'm headed down the right path.

Many, many thanks for any and all help in advance.

Yeah what he said. 12v to the clutch BUT that is the 7" clutch which means the belt would need to change. Personally I would go with a 6" clutch.
 
Working on the pulley and the shop needs a few dimensions from the water pump if anyone has one that is it easy to get to. Want to confirm the fit and then determine a tolerance for the pilot and rear area where the water hub seats (Part that the studs thread into).

Need the measurement of the pilot - Should be about 1.648" and the OD of the hub is about 3.242". I am taking these numbers from the pulley so I would expect you numbers to be a little smaller.
 
Is there any benefit from running a smaller pulley? I'm trying to put this together as cost efficient as possible and don't really want to spend anymore money than necessary. I searched in my city for awhile and only found this one so I'll probably have to order a new clutch which would obviously be more expensive than a longer belt.

Again, thanks for the help.
 
If it works run it. It just means finding a new belt. The Gates number is 7380 which means 38". I'm supplying the OEM equivalent. So I would go with at maybe a 7385 and then experiment.

The difference between 6 and 7 is about 15%, so I'd assume that you'd have to run your engine rpms up 15% higher to match the same output as the smaller pulley.
 
The first batch of ten pulleys and bolts have arrived and will be coming to me shortly. The next ten will be coming soon. The first set of belts arrive 4/30 and then everyday after that another set. It's a Touota thing, I don't understand it.

Also...

For those that don't know what to look for to source the other components, I'll be making up several "kits" to make this as plug -n-play as possible. This includes wiring, plumbing, tanks, hoses and mounting.

Approximate cost for the "kit"? Damn I need this.
 
I would be interested in the kit if the cost is appropriate. I've got little knowledge and trying to learn by reading here and doing small stuff on the vehicles at home and I've got more money than time. Can you please keep me posted on "the kit"? Thanks.
 
Will any/all of the various size York compressors bolt up to the bracket?

Haven't been able to find images of the mini/super compact York, anyone have photos of that compressor to compare to the York 210L?

From this thread I learndt; York 210 with right or left suction is OK. 209 that is not the SC (super compact version) should work according to one poster. If I am incorrect; anyone please correct.
 
Does anyone know if this will fit with a slee passenger side oem battery box dual battery setup?
