Ghost Shadow Posted November 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 steve is that a zip tie on the pcv breather box!?!? get a clamp on there man! awesome work. will this be for sale? i want! yes, have been doing that on the last 4 cars i have. 40lb test $11 per 100. if you buy it then you will have to change that out LOL. Good news! Looks like the evaporator has been replaced... Kind sir, please tell me how you know this? Not trying to be a smart ass, i really want to know. with your trained eye, how can i be schooled on how to spot a replaced evaporator? with this training i can negotiate a better deal on the next project. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volvo5.0 Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 Kind sir, please tell me how you know this? Not trying to be a smart ass, i really want to know. with your trained eye, how can i be schooled on how to spot a replaced evaporator? with this training i can negotiate a better deal on the next project. thanks When the A/C lines are installed originally, they have these plastic clips on them. I don't see the clips in your pictures, which usually means the evaporator has been replaced. Car looks sweet BTW!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
