Title: Compressor tag
Post by: astat1 on August 31, 2009, 07:23:12 PM

Is the square/rectangular factory tag (FoMoCo) attached to the A/C compressor with rivets or small hex bolts? Not referring to the aluminum 5 sided tag on the top of the compressor. Please no comments on it being a shade off! It was the best pic handy. Thanks

It changed from rivets to little small hex screws.  What year are you interested in?

Looking through my reference pics, looks like the Tecumseh pumps had brad rivets holding the tags on while York had a different type.  Not exactly hex, but a small wrench can be put on them and backed out.
