| [Wanted] Conrod, head and cylinder for Dunlop Compressor |
|
I have a failed Dunlop (Hitachi style) compressor which I had almost completed refurbishing when the cylinder head came off the conrod. The pin had enlarged one of the holes and was wobbling.
Rather than throw this one away and buy a complete new unit I was wondering if anyone had a cylinder head, conrod and cylinder spare?
Cheers
Chris

I may have what you are looking for, and local to you. I'll have a rummage through the box of compressor parts. Chris

If you do that would be good. Its worth a try anyway for the cost and the waste.
Cheers

Does your pump have a Dunlop label on it? Chris

I'd say you are in luck. I have an old but working Dunlop compressor, with enough power to blow end off the blocked drier - with a loud bang!
You can have it free of charge, but I'm sure Admin would appreciate a donation to the forum in lieu. Collect from Raglan, I will message details later. Chris

That is amazing and very decent of you. Did you buy a new one?
I refurbished my current one with new seals from 4x4Airseals costing £85 and it fell apart when I got to the piston. So the rest of it is looking OK just not the piston.
Let me know how and when to pick up and I will be there. And will definitely contribute to the forum when my compressor is up and running
Huge thanks
Chris
