Nope, that compressor is a rotary compressor. The dealer installed ones
were "reciprocating". York and Techumse. I ought to know, I installed
enough of them. Hated every minute of it (until payday).
BTW, looks like when it was converted to 12V, they just mounted the 12V
generator onto a 6V fan housing. Notice the lousy fit of the strap.
