diagnosing a sanden compressor issue

Unread post by Baseshakers »

so my OBA sanden wasn't working. i opened up the back plate and saw some black debris. i oiled the back side up, put the cover back on and it worked, sort of. the compressor would compress slowly but it leaked back out the intake port. this was very apparent when i shut the engine off. i'm assuming a seal is shot somewhere. anyone ever repaired a sanden before? should i even try? are repair parts available?

I've never heard of a rebuild kit for one...
