AC question
My compressor blew after having someone else convert it to 134. I know I have to flush the system to get the trash out. My plan is to replace the Compressor, Dryer and in line filter.... is there any need to dig out the expansion valve and replace it or should flusing it be enough?

Re: AC question
Here's a discussion. Last post lists a kit for this. I vote to remove the exp.valve and completely clean it out.

Re: AC question
I would take the whole system out. It will pay off in the long run. The system needs to have everything flushed and cleaned.
