I'm looking for a York Compressor (actually, just the top plate with the line fittings) for my daughter's 78 240D. Anyone have a core with good fittings they'd be willing to part with?

I think this is the part, 123 180 00 39. The casting says 2303921212 BEHR. This part is NOS and yours for $20 delivered.

Nope, mine has the threads exiting straight up from the top and is shaped differently.

Took some pictures of mine which was shot. I had another compressor, but the heads were different. Her head striped the threads when removing the line.

Here's a picture of how it looks on the car (with lines removed)...

Here's a picture of the part I need (notice stripped threads on suction side)...

Here's a picture of the part number. It's hard to make it out, but it reads:
G 12
12-5515

I just got a '78 300D parts car, I'll check the compressor in the AM.

Here is mine from a 1978 300D parts car. It reads T-1 12-5515 I wonder if the the letter denotes a casting or a date code...

Let me know if you still need it.

That's the same one, but I've since found one.

Old thread so I'm guessing you are really searching for parts.

The York ( Tecumseh ) compressor was common on 70's / early 80's Ford and aftermarket AC systems. It is also super popular on industrial equipment. There are bound to be aftermarket parts you can make work.
