You have a York 2 cylinder compressor. The 206 in the part number indicates the displacement is 6 cubic inches.

Here is the service manual for the York compressors.

thank you sir; that does help indeed. i understand that the "f" means the head has flanged connections and the "r" is that the intake is on the right when facing from the pulley end. will be contacting them forthwith.
