ReplyWhat brand and how old?
Maybe some JB weld and pull a slight vacuum on it. I repaired many studio apartment size refrigerator evaporator coils with this method.
May not look to pretty.
No return.
Any body got a fix for it? The glass is pressed into the shell.

Robinair 15600....I think you mean pull a vacuum on the pump needing repair...correct?..cause the sight glass is not on vacuum side of pump....least that is what I was told by a service agent of Robinar.

You should be able to hook another pump to the oil fill plug threads, Maybe???
No return.
Hell yeah! No maybe about it. That's a great idea...have to keep the oil level just below the sight glass to maintain a tight seal from the rest of the pump.

If you do it hvaclover lets us know how it goes, mine is leaking as well
No return.
The head on my pump is new. Unscrewed the brass hex nut holding the sight class...no fricik' O ring! Scavenged the O ring from the old head ...screwed the brass back in...leak stopped.

That's good news.
I had an old Welch Duoseal pump that dribbled oil everywhere. Never had to change oil in it, just topped it off now and then.
