Re: Sourcing R12 240sx compressor
Internals of your core have to turn. Then we treat it as a Reman unit on our website. Additionally, you would need to send the core (s) to our compressor shop. They have the final answer on whether it is rebuildable and whether it would pass the post-build tests.

Re: Honda Accord AC leak
Thank you, this helps. Based on the photo, the dye appears to be more concentrated along the seam where the "peanut" connector mates with the condenser, so I suspected the O-ring could be the culprit. If the leak is due to corrosion, the corrosion should be on the "inner" surface that is not ...
