Boy from Oz Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 (edited) I was going to buy the compressor from JCI but the air freight to Oz is a killer and John kindly sold me just the mounts. I picked up a local Sanden 508 compressor but it doesn't mount up correctly - it works but I had to make some spacers. Could someone check their compressor and let me know which model they are using? Thanks Edited November 28, 2010 by Boy from Oz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1noel Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I see you are not getting any help on this. I tried but it looks like maybe John removed the labels from my compressor. Nothing on it at all. Sorry, mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kj280z Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I had a little better luck - hope this helps - please let us know what you find out so we can further clarify You can try this link: http://www.worldaire.com/pdf/Seltec_AC_Compressor_Catalog_2010.pdf Look for Valeo Part Number 103-52038 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boy from Oz Posted December 7, 2010 Author Share Posted December 7, 2010 Thanks - I did what I should have done in the first place, I phoned John. He said he orders "Seltec - part number 42038". A 'Google' of Seltec 42038 comes up with '488-42038' but there is also information which suggest Seltec is linked to Tama and Valeo, and perhaps the basic model is TM-08 of which "2038" is a variable, i.e. 6 grooves, etc. From kjones's info it seems Velco swaps the first number from a '4' to a '5' but the basic '*2038' remains. SPECIAL NOTE: The Sanden 508 was a total disaster. I was able to mount it up but after all that I then couldn't fit the lead on to cylinder #1. Luckily someone bought it from me at the price I paid. I now have to have another compressor shipped 10,000 miles! Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That link I provided had the part number listed and seemed to match my compressor perfectly - If Valeo is the actual manufacturer, might be best to go to them directly...

Boy from Oz Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 Thanks again - I called four different suppliers today (from Oz) and only one had a compressor and they wanted $130US just for postage. I didn't try Worldaire - I was a bit put off by their web site not having been updated in 5 years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
