Aircon parts swap...Pram for classic parts

#1 by Nik Rite , Sun Aug 19, 2018 8:31 pm

One of my many winter projects this winter will be to sort the air con. I had it pressure tested and there is a hole somewhere and lost the gas. Illl get someone to put a dye in and tell me where the hole is but the guess has to be on the condenser. Classic condensers seem hard to get but Pram ones much easier. With a bit of metal work can they be used instead?? Ta Nik

Guess youd need to get them side by side and also check all operating parameters

Condensers are totally different pram is way bigger as it has no air con condenser fan. I am breaking mine and have the old one off my truck it was working fine before the accident, i am taking out the pipework for someone else and can snap a pic of the condenser for you, its original so quite tired but still worked fine....?
