Everybody wants onboard air. I decided to go with a York setup. I had a compressor
shipped from me from a buddy on the forum and I decided it was warm enough
to play in the garage so I decided to open it up and start tinkering with
it.
Tools:
Time:
1/2 socket
30minutes
From our previous
section we already know its a York 210, but I wanted to know what
the insides looked like since there was a Refurbished decal on the outside
of the case. Since this writeup Ive ordered a gasket rebuild kit from Kilby
EF210R-KIT and I will be incorporating it into this writeup. Written by kizer,

Passenger side
Dead on
Drivers side
Front top down.
Looking at the old clutch
Using a hand drill to spin the shaft. Not the clutch but the
shaft on the compressor. It appears to suck and blow air at
the sametime.
Finger on the sucking side.
It sucks. Nice little suction mark.
Using a 1/2 socket to remove the standard air fittings.
Fittings and bolts removed.
Using 1/2 socket to remove the bolts holding the head on.
All the bolts removed. Looking for ways to insure cover is put back on the way it came off.
S for Suction on the drivers side.
Here is some kind of number.
Head removed. Ports and you can see the top of the pistons in
the right side. Also there isn't a gasket between the head and
the main body.
Notice dowl on the right side of the head.
Dowl hole in compressor body that dowl slides into.
There is a fair bit of fluid in the compressor body.
Lets drain it all out so we can refil it later with the correct stuff for our application.
Most of its gone, now lets use a lint free cloth to soak up the remaining fluid.
Top of the pistion has a few marks on it. Talk about aluminum
being easily scratched. I wonder if that is holes I see in that
piston or what? I'll have to recheck that later. I wonder if
thats where oil comes through to oil the pistons? Hmmm, interesting.
Other side. Notice some small chips missing in the piston sides. No holes in the center of the piston.
Loosely screw in all of the bolts and hand tighten. Do not over tighten. We will torque to spec later.
Placed some paper towls in the holes the fittings used to be in. We do not want debris getting inside of the compressor.
Flipped compressor over to access the lower section.
Remove each of the bolts. There are a lot of them.
Bottom of the compressor is dry. I wonder where all the fluid went?
Wiped the bottom cover.
Recheck the gasket on the bottom. There wasn't any stuck to the bottom cover so it should tighten back down and shouldn't leak when filled back up with oil.
