View Full Version : Compressor Pump Comparison

I have recently acquired a 919.152932 Craftsman Air Compressor from my grandfather. I have no idea how old it is, but the pump has grenaded. I have found that I can order a couple of KK5081 con-rod kits and probably get it going again.

As I was researching parts, I see that these parts cross-reference with a few other pumps. How would I find out if one of the ones I found would be better than the other?

I have and AC0102 on mine now, I see that there is an AC-0051 and an ACG-4000-1. Reading the parts diagram, it looks like they share most parts, up to the heads and and valve plates.

Is there any way I could find out the differences in these assembled pumps? Does one particular head/valve plate combination "put-out" better than another? I don't see how there could be a significant amount of difference, seeings how they have the same "piston"/connecting rod and cylinder sleeve...

Also, is there a way to wire the MO-3024 motor to be 120 volts?

Thanks in advance!
