compressor rebuild kit for Microphor 5000
Hi, all,
I recently had to replace the compressor that powers my toilet, which I believe is Thomas Compressor 405ADC38/12 I kept the old one, and wondered if anyone knows of a rebuild kit that I could use to revitalize this for a spare? One thing I learned, when the toilet quits working, abominable UPS next day charges, somehow become tolerable. Thanks,

Lee:
Right now there are seven Thomas 12 compressors listed on e-bay for $95.00 each. I bought two of them a couple of months ago. They are brand new and a rebuild kit, probably only a little cheaper than these pumps. I quit rebuilding them, buy 2 of 'em and your problem is solved (for a little while anyway. I have learned the rebuild is only a temporary fix.

My turn to replace the potty air compressor. I looked at the rebuild kits, but after 19 years I think this one has served the bus well and I'm going new.
The one I'm replacing looks like a Microphor rebranded Thomas 405ADC38/12 mentioned above. Like this: https://www.zoro.com/thomas-piston-a...12/i/G0626832/ I wondering if this would be a better replacement: https://www.zoro.com/gast-piston-air...jr/i/G2043291/ Much, much less amp draw, a little less Free air CFM's, but if I'm only maintaining a 4 lb tank from 60 to 90 PSI??? What does the collective say, beside get different toilet.

I went with another Thomas. I like to keep things somewhat original for whatever reason and if it lasted almost 20 years it is hard to complain about... It's does do a very important job.
BTW I found it for $281 from http://www.combinedfluidproducts.com/
