Re: [DML] Mechanical Assitance for Delorean Owners

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Shame on you: an R134 conversion does *NOT* require wholesale component replacement. The only components I have replaced on #5939 are compressors (they eventually leak at the front seal) and the low pressure switch -- an often overlooked source of freon leakage. Everything else is original to the car: hoses, condensor, orifice tube, evaporator, and accumulator. People who test drove my car at DCS'12 and Dave Delman's Road Rally will attest for the blissfully cold air that an original system can produce with R134.

Components *CAN* be replaced, but they don't *HAVE* to be replaced. Replacement is optional, condition of components permitting.
