Ossi is looking for information on the airconditioning system for his 13307.
Does anyone have any documentation on this either original factory material or of your own which you could send to me & then I'll pass it on?
Thanks

(Vincent? Francis? Harry?)

As stated before, you can just refill the system with modern type gas R134a
As long as you fitt it with a new filter/dryer and put on two retrofitt filler-couplings.
For the system oil ,if you use paoil66 behr/hella number 8fx 351 214 211
all is ok as it is compatible to both systems.
(if you have the time you can put the compressor bottem down for a day to drain as much of the old stuff.
For amount of filling, I run a kilogram and a bit (twin system\, sngle just under a kilogram.

mine runs top for a few years now Succes

On my car, gas is Ok; vacuum hoses are ok but A/C only works 10 minutes and then the compressor switches always on/off.
I think the temperature sender in the dash is the fault : when outside t° seems to be correct ( about 20° - sender is placed beside the front bumper ); inside t° rise to 999 and then only 1. I'll check this and let posted.
Ron Howell said me the system was engineered by Carrier.

My A/C compressor is 'out of service'.
Donator is Range Rover V8; Ref ETC 9005; price 685 € +VAT.
The make of the A/C compressor is SANDEN SD-510 and also fits vehicles powered by V6 PRV ( Peugeot 504 Coupé; DeLorean DMC 12; Renault; Volvo 740/940 ) and some Jags.
Market price in the USA : 148 US$. (vs more than 300€ in France )
I've ordered one and let you posted with the result...

The part is not suitable; 410 € + VAT later I found the right part from the aftermarket. Just let me put it in the car to give the result...and the right ref to order...
