    history .I am able to strip a compressor off a 244 for free ,problem is are
    they interchangeable Its the rotary compressor like my wifes 88 740T and my
    1990 740 T . Is the older type (not sure of the year yet )when did they
    change from York to rotary .

    The rotary type started with the B230 in 1985.

    Replace tt with t (twice!) and remove parentheses to email me directly.

    You can't easily go from the York to the later style compressor. You'd need
    all the old brackets, the split crank pully, the old style power steering
    pump, the rotary compressors are easier to find in good shape anyway.
