Next week I'm finally swapping engines in my car and after the heat wave this week I'm thinking about finally owning a car with A/C.
The compressor works fine, system blows well but warm air of course. I'd prefer to fix the cause of the leak then to keep refilling the lines.
I figure it is cheaper for me to replace all the o-rings and common failure points than it is to take it to a mechanic and have repeat visits to chase down all the leaks.
The three common parts I hear to replace are the:
3* 4230462 Reciever Drier CRP $44.90
6* 5045166 Expansion Valve TGK $52.90
35* 4367991 Schrader Valve Genuine Saab $5.54
plus the o-rings and maybe dye.
Is this the right idea? And/or are there other common parts to replace?
