Thanks for the encouragement Dave!!

I just got the r-12 sucked out and will begin surgery on the old gal tonight.

Looking at the new evaporator, it is wrapped in a butyl tape around the outside edges and the bottom. What did you remove or leave on the evaporator before sliding it into the housing?

The instructions from the zip file on Shannons page states "remove the backing paper from the butyl tape on the rear of the new evaporator"

what about the tape on the sides, bottom, top?? The lack of detail in the instructions drives me nuts! (no pun intended with your login name)

If you can shed any light on the evap question, that's much appreciated as well.


Cheers,
Greg
