Review on Wilkins RK1 720A Repair Kits by Daryl Fitch

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Therefore, I am glad that 10 years have passed between overhauls.

This kit was complete, all parts looked very good and the instructions were very complete. With this kit, it's a bit tricky to put the big spring in so that it goes under the bar at the top. So be careful when installing as indicated in the instructions and on the diagram. If the brass top piece is not bolted flush to the outer case, the large spring will not be under the tab. So it's a little tricky to install as others have pointed out in some reviews. I've had our house for 20 years now and this is the second time I've had to change this set. Therefore, I am glad that 10 years have passed between repairs.

Pros
  • Reed valves
Cons
  • Slightly torn
