I stumbled across and acquired a Mako compressor pump a little over a month ago. It appears to be a (slightly) younger sibling of the one discussed in this recent/current thread:
Old Bauer and Mako questions
Like the unit in the above thread, it has no model number, just a serial number on a Mako plate, 224879, which is also stamped into the block.
After a bit of online searching, I'm guessing it's a 5404 or 5405 pump. I don't know if there's any way to determine which one it is without opening up and measuring the first stage cylinder. Based on stampings on various parts of the unit, it seems to be dated around 1982. It would be great if someone can confirm or otherwise identify what I have here.
Initial examination shows missing relief valves on the 1st and 2nd stages, a missing drain valve on the second stage separator, and the flywheel/pulley is MIA. The pump had been drained of oil, and was tagged as such. The crankshaft can be spun by hand, and I can feel pressure building from the first stage (via the hole where the missing relief valve should be).
I figure the valves or suitable replacements can be found without too much effort. Anyone have a source or any ideas for replacing the flywheel/pulley? I'm not really sure what size/diameter it was originally, but the bore is 1" (or 25mm). I do have the hub that originally came with it, if that helps.
