Oil these days really depends on the compressor manufacturer. So many people selling different brands that fit vehicles claim they are OEM "Replacements", especially your eBay/Amazon shoppers. Some overseas compressors use PAG46 even though the OEM was something else. That's why you should verify ...

That's a 3-pass PF evap; there are other types. In this case, the refrigerant flows in sections, as shown in the green flow pattern. You can see each section from the weld marks close to the fitting connection. See your 3rd image.

There you go, happy Thanksgiving.

Santech makes very good O-rings in general. IMO, HNBR is HNBR. If kept closed in a bag or plastic case, out of sunlight. Should be good. Are they flexible?

A few days early. Wishing all our members a Happy Thanksgiving.

Not fun for me either. Customers want me to spend an hour searching for a .20 cent o-ring. Then they go and Google shop. It's like your time and effort are worth nothing.

The ones we have are the same as the ones you have.

Running off to PT. But just got off the phone with NV, and they are checking.

Seeing if I can get someone to check the NV stock. Back when we had the shop and got a fitting like that. I would place a spacer on the end and use a cutting wheel to remove a little of the end. Take off my spacer, used to cut straight and depth. Clean up the end, and always seemed to work out okay.

Is that a UAC hose?
