well, by building up the material, the technicial is better able to create good threads upon rethreading of the existing fitting.

SAPS WELDING AND RADIATOR REPAIR IN GARNER, DAMMIT ALL. YOU ALREADY KNOW THIS.

I had an evaporator core once where the threads were galled. I cleaned them bitches up real good and put a wrap or two of teflon tape on there and put that shit back together. Worked great with Freeze 12 until the fucking compressor seal started leaking. Freeze 12 is a JOKE. It's 80% R134 and 20% R142. But we've argued that one to death already.

you could have gk2004 machine you a new fitting, then have saps weld it on

depends on how expensivce the condenser is

is it a taper seat, or a machined o-ring seat?


seriously though, take it to sapps, if it can be fixed, those jewish bastards can do it

[Edited on January 16, 2009 at 11:54 AM. Reason : and start that shit by hand next time]

I'm thinking about repairing my AC compressor. And by repairing it I mean tearing that shit out for good.
