A/C Switch

Well I got around to fixin' the A/C finally, but as usual something went wrong. I cranked down on my evaporater only to find out that my threads were crossed on my condenser and the evaporater wouldn't go past a certain point. So does anyone have a spare A/C condenser or know of a newer model which can be substituted for the off-the-market condenser?

 

Bought one on ebay. Threads matched up but you will need to fab bracketry. I used aluminum flat stock and a piece of 5/8 channel to make up the difference to mount the drier. Got it at ACE hardware. This is a parallel flow coil as opposed to the OEM serial style.

Other than that, everything fit and did it take stock parts?

 

stock lines bolted right up. Had to bend them a little to make everything fit real good. The old one with the steel frame is slightly thicker than the new by 5/8 so I used channel to make up the difference to mount the drier

 

Is there a benefit between parallel and serial?

 

parallel suppose to be more efficient.

 

What does the 5/8 channel look like?

 

I get mine from an A/C parts supply store...direct replacement...
