York 210 A/C Compressor Piston Ring Needed
« on: May 04, 2015, 05:47:29 PM »
Anyone know where I can source a piston ring for a York 210 A/C compressor (on my '81 Eagle)??   I'm having no luck.

Found this on eBay, maybe they would be able to help you out.

Also, I have a york compressor from my 1980 Eagle I'm about to throw away.  If you think you'd be able to transplant the piston ring into yours maybe I can extract it from mine.

That could work.   Or if you want to bother, I'd be happy to take the whole unit off your hands for parts -- I don't mind forking over the shipping charges and then some!

Yeah, you can have the whole thing for the cost of shipping.  I might even be able to fit it into one of those "flat rate" shipping boxes to keep the cost affordable!

AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!

Yeah; I'd looked at them.  But all they seem to have is York JS stuff -- way bigger than our little York stuff.
