Car Forum / Chevrolet / Chevrolet Corvette / March 2005jascoprod.com air pump diaphragm
Does anyone know what happened to Jasco Products, the mfg of the air pumps for vette sport seats. Their website jascoprod.com is no longer operational, how can I contact them? I am looking for a reasonable priced source for air pump diaphragms for sport seats in 87 vette. tnx Jasco Products Incorporated is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ark of Commerce, Inc., Del Mar, California. The company develops and manufactures an array of products that employ proprietary technologies for aircraft and automotive seating, medical products and instrumentation.

I've used one of those for several years and it works OK for me -- no fancy buttons though. About three years ago JASCO came up with a neat idea for an airliner seat that would prevent blood clots on long flights. United Airlines bought into the idea and United became JASCO's prime customer. When the airline business tanked so did the massaging seat. ARK of COMMERCE ('ARK' rather than 'ARC') is a business development, and public relations outfit located in Del Mar and New York City. About all they could do for you is provide an opportunity to invest in JASCO or buy the intellectual property (patents, design drawings, trademarks, etc.) HTH.....

This is naturally my second choice for a repair but if genuine parts are not available I will try this repair. I just reinspected the failed diaphragm assembly and think that the rubber glove repair will work better than I had originally thought I have a lumbar support in my pilot parachute that is filled with a manual bulb pump from a blood pressure testing cuff. Using one of those is also an option but would require tubing splitters and check valves. I will try repairing the pump first. > How about a DIY repair instead? > [quoted text clipped - 45 lines] > >>>>> > >>>>>tnx Just completed latex glove diaphram repair; parts cost $0; seems to work quite well.
