a\c orings
Does anyone know what the part #'* are for the a\c orings?
funny story just bought a 93 ssei fair deal a\c needed work, opened system no freon just air flushed, changed orifice, pumped down recharged with 134a it had been converted already. compressor won't run borrowed scan tool from father inlaw (did I spell that right?) tracked down problem bad fuse behind glovebox. stupid place for fuses. goth every thing cycling right and working blew great cold air, developed leak bought dye got out blacklight went to looking. Found it condenser. Talked to uncle at parts store $95 bucks. Now I have the condenser but I want to change the o-rings before I put it back together. Parts store didn't know what number they were and the only had a book that you laid the old ring over. I'm sure that the rings have some wear or deformity after 11 years and I was weary of the placemat chart. Can anybody help?

Do yourself a favour in this situation and take the O-ring into the dealer. For the extra couple of bucks you are assured of getting the right ones (OEM).
