      Sold!

      The o-rings are what the ETK lists, but they list quantity as "?". Most connections did not have them. I left one on where there was one. Of course, one might fall off - but I'd bet the dealer has them, and sizes should not be difficult to figure out.

      I think when you lay it out, things will make sense.

      Good luck!

        I want to be clear, as the above post might not be.....

        I wrecked the condenser (the little radiator thing in front of the real radiator). This is not R12 or R134a specific - if you have one in your car, and it does not have a hole in it, it will work, no matter when your car was built. The way I wrote it originally, you could read that it was the line to the condenser - that is not the case.

        To recap - to have functional R134a A/C, you will need:
        Some R134a refrigerant (like 5-10 bucks from the parts store)
        A working condenser (probably free)
        A new dryer (unless you want to give the included one a try - I would not)
        I would also replace the O -Rings (I don't know which, but there are less than 5 in the system)
        GASKET RING D=7,65MM 64508390601 $1.12
        GASKET RING D=6.8MM 64508390605 $3.15
        GASKET RING D=11.1MM 64508390602 $1.24
        GASKET RING D=14MM 64508390603 $0.67
        GASKET RING D=17MM 64508390604 $0.97

        An A/C Compressor Belt (64521706826 $7.25)
        The stuff I have for sale here...
        I have a condenser if need be. Also pulled my AC for track prep. Sold off the compressor already, and have not yet pulled the evaporator in the cabin, but the condenser is in perfect shape. LMK if interested.
