Posted: Mon Aug 07, 2006 7:26 am Post subject: Ac parts - O rings
I am replaceing the #6 compressor, condensor and expansion valve on my car. All the manuals say replace the o rings but don't leave the system open for long. Where can I determine what rings to get before I yank the system open? What is a good source for parts? Does anyone sell an o ring kit? Do the o rings have to be a special material? Etc etc.??? _________________ Two tone blue , 350 CI, 1982 Caballero formerly from the great state of OK.
Start the restoration!
The o-rings are specific to AC use. Some parts houses have them in a kit for changing over to 134a.
Unless you leave the car out in the rain or other moisture laden circumstances you can leave it open long enough to het the o-rings and reconnect the fittings. _________________ Ol Paint and me
