The Evaporator / Blower Motor Plenum Part 7

Just to recap what this used to look like.

Time to add the weather strip to the other side.

Nothing fancy, but it will seal. I did drill the holes for the screws but forgot to take a picture. I'm sure I'll take the picture when it is ready to go on the car. Holy crap this was loads of work. I did truly save the worst for last.

Since these were in the same bag as the expansion valve I might as well install these on the brand new York 210.

It's still capped.

These new Freightliner York 210's come with an adapter and can use either Tube - O fittings or Rotolock connections. I do like that. Since the charge port fittings I bought are Tube - O the Rotolock adapters can come out. In the past the York could be ordered with the head for Tube -O or Rotolock specifically.

Lube up the O-Rings with Ester oil and install.

It's funny the chassis is so monochromatic it looks like the fittings were Photoshopped in. However this system now has the R134a charge ports and no adapters from R12/22 ports.

This concludes this round.

More to come.

Cheers
