Champion R15

[bannerd]

In the middle of a complete overhaul of my chamion R15 air compressor. It sits on a industrial 120 gallon tank. I picked it up on CL for couple hundred. There was a major oil leak, the rings were worn right out. New rings, new single phase motor (replace the phase three one) and re-seal. The only think that I'm missing is the crank seal. The one that came with the kit is way to big, anyone have a part number or know where I can snag one online?


Thanks!

The crank seal cross over numbers are 13649 (Chicago Rawhide) and 471192 (National).

Compare those numbers to what is stamped in the metal of the ill-fitting replacement.

I like to never got my seal reinstalled, hope you have better luck (or skills) http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=225025

I just read that entire thread. The funny thing is.. when I looked at where the oil seal was.. I can see a lip from the cast. I was wondering how a new one would fit because that would make it out of round. I have a nice PVC pipe I'll give a few whacks at and hopefully it'll go in? I'm guessing the trick to this is.. don't let that seal turn as it will have to bend/shape to the hole. I'll have to get a few of these, oh my.
