As far as i know they can be reused and they can be flushed. all the evaporator is is a miniature radiator. Warm air travels through the fins of the cooler evaporator coil, the moisture contained in the air condenses on its surface. R-134 enters the bottom of the evaporator as a low pressure.. The warm air passing through the fins causes the r-134 to boil. As the refrigerant begins to boil, it absorbs heat. This heat is then carried off with the refrigerant to the outside of the vehicle.
