Pardon my ignorance but "barrier hoses"? Looking at the system the hoses look like the originals.

Since I replaced all the orings I did flush out the evap and condenser best I could with what I have to work with probably not perfect but better than nothing.

Finally got back to the Chrysler, been a while since I have screwed with any of this. Went to the parts house to get a few items and found that there is more than one pag oil. Which one do I want for this V2 compressor, or does it make a difference?

It is a Newport which I believe is a C body. It is a factory air, still has the airtemp sticker on the rear window, V2 compressor. That being said is there a shaft seal available that is 134 compatible. As long as I am going this far might as well go for the gusto. As memory serves the shaft seals w...

Forgot to mention that it was converted to 134 before I ever saw it. O rings? I have not broken down any hose connections but I remembered these as having flare connections. If they are o ring connections I will break them all down. Should I use the green o rings? It does have a sight glass so the c...

I have a 65 Chrysler presently sitting in my side yard. It is a limited use driver that belongs to a friend in Australia, she drives it anytime she is in the States. The likelihood of her needing it anytime soon is slim to none, so I am fixing all the little irritating things that always exist in a ...

I just finished an L83 and 6L80E swap into my '63 Pontiac. I am trying to get the A/C working. Everything on the system is off of the truck, compressor. condenser, evaporator and hoses. Obviously I do not have the BCM to control the de-stroking of the compressor so I added a low pressure cutoff and ...

I am putting an ls engine and trans out of a '15 Silverado in my '63 Pontiac. I plan to use the compressor, condenser, evaporator and hoses off of the truck because the charge seems to be quite critical with a variable displacement compressor. Is there a compressor that will fit on that engine with ...

OK guys, If you are old enough you will understand what I am about to say, if not keep breathing and you will make it. GETTING OLD SUCKS. I have been racking my brain since I charged it wondering what the he... is going on. finally dawned on me. The car has been down about a month while I was doing ...

Driving it the nozzle temp was still climbing appreciably as soon as you would slow down so I tried the .072 orifice and it seemed to work the same as the .057. I figured that as soon as I can find a wrecked Chev or GMC van I will be doing the LS engine and trans change and the weather is cooling of...

OK, I have been since last Wednesday afternoon installing the V7 compressor, had to fabricate all new brackets. As has been the norm for this A/C install everything was a problem but it is in nonetheless. Wonder if there is anyone out there that could use a compressor/alternator bracket and a Sanden...
