Replacement service valves
« on: August 22, 2021, 06:44:05 PM »
Anyone have a source or replacement for the service valves on the Sanden compressor.  One or both of mine are leaking.  Found a source on the web but after I ordered them they cancelled the order and said they are no longer available.  Thanks.

I've yet to see one of these actually leak!    Bad news is the AMC versions are all gone (part numbers J3228593 and 53000573).   However, you may be able to get service valves with R134 ports from Four Seasons -- like their 14718 and 14720 valves.   Of course need to check the hose connection thread sizes/styles to be sure they'll fit.  If they fit, at least they're cheap!   I haven't researched this myself yet - so let us know if you find anything.
