RE: 88 Spider-Need ac O ring locations/sizes

["John Katos" <john_katos@domain.elided>]

Paul,
I converted to R134a on two vehicles, my 87 Audi 5000cs quattro and my
87 Milano. Both were accomplished using the Interdynamics conversion kit,
available at WalMart and most auto parts stores. In neither case did I
bother to change anything. The Audi had sat for two or three years before
I bought it. I borrowed a vacuum pump and found the system to be pretty
tight. Last year it started leaking at the condenser and I used
Interdynamics
two part leak sealing kit. It is now working fine again. The Milano was
not as successful as I believe the system leaked from the compressor and
it was not worth changing. It did cool but leaked out after about a month.
