OK all you A/C experts, here's your chance to show your stuff.  The PO on my
Wolfie jacked up the threads on the condenser something fierce as I almost
killed myself undoing the fittings.  Long story short, I pinched a good
condenser from my Synco (currently on jacks) and set about to putting it in.
(BTW, I was changing the radiator so the condenser had to be removed and
replaced so I had to flush it for it's upcoming conversion--That's another
message...)  Anyhow, no matter how well I've picked and scraped the inside
of the steel connectors(to get out any galled up aluminum from the male
portion on the condenser) on the lines, the small one keeps messing up the
threads on the replacement condenser.  Question of the day is: Those A/C
connectors are standard industry sizes--Yes????  Or...did Hans & Franz
decide to make those metric also???  If the former I can get a shop to put
new ends on.  If not--Well, I could pinch the lines out of the Synco but I
REALLY don't want to spend the day under that beast pulling those
#$%@$%lines out...Ya know what I mean?

Thanks

TJ
