Try getting in touch with Ray Crowe, Parts Manager at Malloy Mazda for that and other OEM parts. He gives us all discounts. His phone is 888.533.3400.

Beyond that, you can take a look at the Classified section here to see if anyone has a good used one. Do follow the forum rules regarding classifieds and post counts and read the stickies in the classifieds section to help prevent fraud/scams.

The general rules are stickied in this forum.


I will give you a warning though - Do NOT try and use this and threads in the newbie sections as a wanted to buy or sell classifieds thread. FOllow the proper procedures and rules to keep everyone safe and honest.

thanks for your advice, i guess i should have asked how many different types or brands of air compressors utilized by mazda back in the 80s. seems like every time i look at a engine compartment pic, i see a diff model of air compressor. how do i know if the clutch is bad and not just the compressor not holding a charge?

Do you have emissions testing in Ohio? If not, then remove the cat and the pump and just be done with it. Save money, get better performance.
