I recently got a Crosman 101 from an auction, currently, it doesn't fill air when I pump it, I don't think it's because it won't hold air, as I don't hear any air escaping, so I assume it's not compressing air when I pump it, does anyone know how to fix this, would a seal kit work?

I would check out u-tube. They have lots of videos on how to trouble shoot and install seal kits for that model and other air guns as well.

I have rebuilt several of these guns. The can be very tricky. Some have a “conical” exhaust valve that is hard to service. The valve body to tube is another piece that can be a pain. They are wonderful guns when repaired, and all have been very accurate.

Your key phrase is "I don't think it's because it won't hold air". Make sure with leak detector while pumping. Could be gun, could be pump. Determining exactly what you're dealing with (imho) would be the 1st step in repairing. Good luck.
