[QUOTE="EddieS'04, post: 919877, member: 61136"] I have been able to get away without a new dryer when I had to open a new system. But I will pull a vacuum for more than 1hr. At no less than 28 to 29"hg, to boil off all moisture. If you cant pull that much vacuum. Just pull vacuum longer. With the age of yours though, go for the new dryer and orfice. Make sure they flush the system real good. I say a new orfice because after the flush there may be some crud that will plug the old one.They must have found the leakin the condensor. They are thin aluminum tubing nowdays. I have seen more condensors on late model cars fail than hoses. Except the o-rings. It wouldnt hurt to have all o-rings changed also, on the hose connections.
