A/C Compressor

Frank_ODonnell · Aug 4, 2025 at 12:23 PM

While attempting to recharge my A/C we have found the compressor to be defective. I'm sure that other owners have faced this same problem. Do I want to have the compressor rebuilt? Are rebuilt replacements available from some company, or is there an acceptable new replacement unit owners have had success with? I have a R12/R134 valve attached, and I believe what is a York brand compressor. Please advise.
Thank you,
Frank in Florida

How does the problem manifest Frank? Does the compressor leak? Or not provide compression? New seals are available from MIE along with valves etc.
If you are using R134 not R12, have you got suitable seals, hoses and compressor oil??
in extremis whole new York style units are available, but they will probably be R210 size not R206 like the originals.

Cheers.

Hello Frank...

Not sure this will help, but on Ivan's site (thecarnut.com) there is a York Compressor manual.
I believe it may be applicable to both the R206 and R210 models..

My a/c specialist pumped in a small amount of R134 and there is no compression. What's the difference in size between the R210 and the R206?
