Re: [DML] Cross reference for air conditioner evaporator

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Surely there is an xRef somewhere that will fit. Fittings in/out might well be a different size or thread however. The big question is: how much cheaper would such an xRef be? Is it really worth $25 or $30 to adapt an evaporator from another application?

Potential evaporator damage is the #1 reason I recommend against taking a 31 year old A/C system apart. The tubing is extremely thin walled and easy to damage. We have very little room to maneuver a wrench to hold the evaporator still while trying to turn the rusty connecting hose off. At least the condensor fittings are readily accessible. 

I wonder how many owners like Louis have unwittingly purchased cars with Previous Owner evaporator damage?
