Hello. I've been given a Sears air compressor,2 cylinders, maybe 15+ years
old. Needs valves.
Anyone know who really made it? Sears has no parts(too old). It's in
really,really good shape,so I want to fix it.
Thanks for any help.

do you have a model number on it?? if so then go to sears web site:
www.sears.com and look to the upper left and check off PARTS.. another
page comes up and then you put the model number in and it will show the
diagram of the compressor..... mighjt help locating parts at another
place... i went to a local pump repair place(guy had lost of air
compressors there that he was working on... he got me the parts i
needed.. on my old sears air compresser it had the manufacturer's name
on a metal plate brazed onto the frame.. it was Devilbliss..........
would never had gotten that info from sears or anyplace that i could
have located... You state that its in really, really good shape?
well you might do better just getting a new pump and putting it on the
old machine??? or with the prices of air compressor always coming down
you might just save you old one for parts or trying to fix the valves in
the old one by grinding the valves to make it work and it will not cost
you anything?????
