Wayne Air Compressor rebuild

I have a 19?? Wayne Air Compressor Model 376V (AC4120). The unit stills runs but it is a little slow filling the tank up. I have researched Wayne and the company does not exist. Leroy (Dresser) in Ohio, bought the company, but they do not have any such parts what so ever. Does anyone know of someone that has any manuals and/or a rebuilt kit for the pump? My other route is to buy an inexpensive replacement pump any suggections?

Hi, I just bought a wayne air compressor and it is from 1969. It has two compressor's (only one works) and two motor's. My friend works at a company in Marion Indiana that can get replacment parts for anything. I will talk with him in the next couple of days. Because I need a crank and a few other parts for mine. I will see if he can find a rebuild kit for them if so I'll let you know. Let me know If you get this messege.

Hi Billferg,

I have not looked for any parts yet, I haven't picked it up yet. One thing I have to do before anything is to change the motor, Its three phase, I guess it came out of an old gas station.

Whats the story on your compressor? how old, how big?

Keep in touch, Tom.

I just purchased a air compressor, It has a big Wayne horz. tank and a two cyclinder compressor with a 2 hp motor. I don't know if it the original compressor. I could not find a tag on it. I freed up the pistons, but the reed valves are still frozen. How do I seperate the two halves of the head. and where do I get parts.

I just picked up a Wayne compressor, model number 992 on the pump. Two stage, and I believe this one was origanally powered with a 12 HP gas engine. I am looking for a manual for this pump. Any help out there??

Thanks

I have a Wayne model 378V that needs a motor, not sure what horsepower it needs?? Can anyone help? I seem to think a 2hp would do it, but need to know for sure. Thanks. Greg
