Title: compressor terminal connectors Post by: collecture on November 07, 2007, 07:51:28 pm Anybody know where to get connectors that fit onto the compressor posts?
I am trying to rewire the Cav72 Blissfield compressor to make sure everyting works and the terminal connectors are old and some broken and do not clip on the posts well. I can post a pic if necessary, but thought you guys might know exactly what I was talking about. I checked radio shack, but no go.

See attached photo Do you have a Apco Suppy Here is their web site http://www.apcoinc.com/ Title: Re: compressor terminal connectors Post by: collecture on November 07, 2007, 09:47:15 pm Pat,
The original start relay works fine (at least it did in my preliminary check). I am not restoring this machine (at the moment) - all I want to do is make sure the compressor et al is working. Somebody has got to carry these connectors! I'll make it work regardless, but I'd like to have a nice solid connection at the compressor.

I'd still like to find the wire terminals though if anybody has any ideas! Title: Re: compressor terminal connectors Post by: bubba on November 08, 2007, 06:53:22 am Tom... can you post a pic of what you are looking for?
