    Retrotek Purchase

    No, I have pretty much given up on them...no idea how long the car would be down if/when something breaks/malfunctions, if they cannot supply systems, I have to believe that getting parts from them will be worse! Kinda bummed too cause of the time lost waiting!!!

    Retrotek Purchase

    O.k., I talked to them today, It seems that the cast version is the only one not stocked, IF they don't have a polished cast system in by monday, he is willing to discount a machined finish billett version which I can get to my door on tuesday. So it looks like I should have a system to oggle...

    AC refrigerant question.

    Party on wane...use what ever makes you get that warm and fuzzy feeling!!! But for a novice I would strongly sugest R-12 or Hotshot...and if you're worried about the oil getting "darker" switch it to POE?!? But the big three auto manufacturers tried just changing the oil to POE and running...

    AC refrigerant question.

    I was responding to the post refering to freeze12 smoking a compressor. 134a is the only refrigerant for car ac that will cause you a problem with the wrong oil. You can use POE or standard oil in R-12,FR12,Hotshot charged systems with out problems. So that being said, if you trash a...

    AC refrigerant question.

    There is pretty-much only two ways to trash a compressor that fast. 1. Incorrect refrigerant charge...TOO MUCH=liquid returning to the compressor breaking valves/pistons, etc. TOO LITTLE=compressor will not be cooled by the returning gas can smoke the bearings. 2. mismatched system...
