    Bought a new Condenser, Drier, and got hoses rebuilt. All looks great. But I put some pressure in the system to check for leaks. And the new Drier is leaking! So close, yet so far!:rofl2:
    Maybe next week I will A/C again.
    The new condenser looks much better then the older one.
    Thanks everyone for the help so far.

    No I didn't forget the O rings and lube. It is leaking out of the side of the drier. Must of slipped by quality check.

    Wanted to keep the original look. That is why not a Sanden.
