[s-cars] A/C condensor

[Doug Landaeta]

Elijah,

If they are both R134 systems, and are both the
Zexel DCW-17B, I don't see why not.  But, given
the failure rates that are common in the first
60-90k miles on these "wobble plate designed"
relatively difficult to source (unless you ask
this list) compressors, It would make prudent
sense to have it rebuilt.  Once it is rebuilt, it
is sent back in such a way that it can be set up
for R12 or R134.  Try the only two outfits that
seem to know what these Zexel's are.

No affiliation, etc. listers have used them both.

D#@M - I'm sending this post anyway - I thought
you said compressor not condenser. My ears need a
tune-up.
