[DMCForum] Re: Sanden 508 or 510, what should I use? Vin 3323 Update

["brandelorean" <brandelorean@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Marc,

Well the system is not under vacuum and the dryer seems really dry 
(especially out here in Colorado).  Do you think it's still useable?  
I guess putting the system under vacuum would probably tell?  

I'll definitely replace the orifice tube....and am looking for a 
cheap AC compressor as well....

Anyone got a compressor lying around that they're looking to get rid 
of??

Thanks,

Brandon
