he didnt told me the name of seal, but i hv seen my self he put leak detector nose at the clutch and gas was leaking from pulley side. Warranty was of 3 days and leak was soo minor that it took a month when i declared that OK now AC is not cooling well.

3 days on 300 dollar air compressor? rediculous! ripoff! sometimes they post time limits/no refunds but will still do deal with reasonable customers.
