on board air for my yota

York is a better choice than the Toyota a/c compressor as it has an oil reservoir. Lasts much longer than the Toyota compressor.
 
My FJ40 came out of AZ and it had AC on it when I got it but there wasn't a belt on it so I don't know if it works.

The pump looks like the one in the picture.

The numbers on it are as follows:
No - M 207940
PT - F2 OR 16804
(bottom right) - 03 79CMC

Anyone know if this is a good one to use?

Also, how can I test it to see if it works?

Doesn't sound like a typical York, but it'll probably work just fine. If you've got the hoses off of it just plug either port with your thumb and spin the center of the clutch to see if it pumps. Here's the York ID info pdfs

toys ran a smaller "york" style Nipindenso (sp?). They were square with an oil reservoir, I've found them in mid '70s toy cars. Mitsubishi also had a small square type compressor (oil reservoir) that works fairly well, found on a early 80 truck.
 
It pumps! The problem I have now is that it has a v-belt pulley and the 383 has a serpentine belt . . .
 
sounds like a pretty simple mod.


There are a few things to address though.

The outlet pipe will get HOT. A section of copper (?) hardline helps keep your hose from melting.

Also, that York will put out a lot more pressure than your hose can handle. Best to incorporate a hi/lo pressure switch to handle it automatically rather than relying on "just remembering to turn it off when the tank's full". There's a reason somebody found out that the York will put out 300psi without blinking.

You'll probably want an air/oil separator inline with the outlet. Even though the York uses an oil bath rather than inline oiling for lubrication, you'll still get some coming out.






I use CO2.

If you can grab the original hoses, they can take the heat just fine. Your average "air" hose will get soft and pop real quick.
 
so what would i be looking at? some OE a/c hoses, a pressure switch, a compressor, some air lines and a tank?

Tank is optional. Depending on what kind of pressure switch you get you may want a relay for the clutch power.
 
the tank is an option i want. so approximately what would i be looking at here cost wise, both with an OE compressor and a york?
 
I hooked up a 2.5 gal air tank to my York. I used on the tank a 150psi blow off valve, 150psi (turn down to 140) pressure switch. Off the York I ran 4' of steel braided hose to a 200psi one way valve to a air/water seperator. For hose I use semi air brake line. Lots cheaper and lasts way longer then red air hose.

You will get some oil in the line on the Yorks that have a oil reserve. Take the head off and plug the hole that is down in the cylinder. Also you can plug the same hole off by removing the pulley off the crank. I used a set screw in that end.

The your mentioned above is a 207 York. Not as pwerful as the 210. It pumps a lower volume. Still will work just fine for tires.

I used the ARB pressure switch for my system and an old brake air tank from a semi for air storage. Be sure to use a relay for the power supply also.
