Hi All; I'm having A\C problems. I have a 87 Westy with a FAS Gen V engine with a new compressor, lines, etc. When I started to lose pressure I had dye put in the system to try to find the leak. The problem has gotten worse with time. When checking for dye, none could be found in engine bay, lines, front radiator or any place I could see. I am worried that the problem is in the overhead cabinet where nothing was done (ie: just connected new system to it, after flushing etc.). I have heard that replacement parts for that part of the system are hard to find. Can someone give me an idea of what's in there that can and cannot be replaced with new parts? Info on where one can find them, especially the condenser, would also be helpful.

Dave B.
