Yes =E2=80=93 the tank IS black. Is that what you meant?  I had looked =
at Ereplacementparts.com, and they call out rod kit KK-4835, but =
it=E2=80=99s no longer available.

=EF=BB=BF

So I bought a Sears Craftsman 6.5 HP 2-cylinder oil-less air compressor =
used. Since I bought it used, I don=E2=80=99t know how old it is, or how =
it was used=E2=80=A6 Recently I fired it up and it began making a noise, =
so I shut it down, and found lots of plastic parts on the shop floor. =
Upon inspection, it has thrown a rod on one cylinder. The plastic parts =
were from the fan.  The issue is finding a connecting rod and cylinder =
kit for it, since it appears to no longer be made/sold, and sears parts =
direct doesn=E2=80=99t have the parts.

=20

The Sears Craftsman model # is 919-165600, and it looks like it was also =
sold as a DeVilblis 919-16560, as well as lots of other makes and =
models.  The connecting rod is an ACG-1.

=20

Some people claim there are only about 3-4 different cylinder =
configurations, so I guess my question is what would be a good source =
for locating parts for this thing? I=E2=80=99ve looked around Amazon, =
E-Bay, etc. and so far have found one kit, but its $139 for a single =
cylinder! See =
https://www.amazon.com/Benron-Equipment-Replacment-for-KK-4835/dp/B0814GP=
4ZH/ref=3Dpsdc_9022420011_t3_B00F9Z4A1G. there must be a better =
alternative.
