Vanagon GL 86, 2.1 We need a new compressor... when one thing goes wrong, others come along, but it's worth it!!! Here is the question: which A/C compressor model do we need? The suppliers sell SD508 & SD709. Our van has SD510 (see picture). Actually, numbers and letters that are on the compressor include 510S21 (embossed on body, indicating model?) 9150 label which was stuck over Model# U 96773 (on main label) Serial#: 00027702971 (on main label) Q (on cylinder head, indicating cylinder head type) A1A68UM (on clutch) It looks like our choices may be SD510 (R12/R134) SD7H15HD (R134) SD7H14HD (R134) SD709 (R12/R134) SD7H15 (R134) SD508 (R12/R134) SD5H14 (R134) So, which one is it? Note that we converted to R134 a few years ago when we were supplied with the 510 one. georgios |
