> I hope it's not too soon to post a reply, but when I drove the coach back from Jim K's place this evening the A/C was blowing plenty cold.
>
> To recap what I did, without the help of any cavemen, I removed the compressor from the coach, removed the ceramic shaft seal and replaced it
> with a "double seal" that is made for a newer compressor, reinstalled, vacuumed, and recharged with Duracool.
>
> My freon leak was through the front seal of the compressor. I'm not 100% certain I did the job properly, but our trip down the coast next week will
> be the pudding by which I'll find the proof.
>
> If that job was successful then I'll start the Zay Brand modifications. Although I have no reason to wait to do this...
