Well, I know its the winter, but its time for me to replace the seals I believe. Previous owner just charged the AC. every year, not too eco-friendly. Anyway I want to get this leak licked. I was wondering if anyone had experience replacing the seals, and where exactly they are. The compressor is new, about a year old, but there hasn't been freon in the system for at least a year. I've heard that the all that rubber begins to dry out without freon lubrication. I also wonder if , the lack of freon in the system has caused any damage to the compressor. If anyone has any knowledge of this, it would be helpful. Thanks Andrew DUnn 89 GL |
