Over the road A/C repair - getting oil in the compressor?

[Brian Diehl]

Rick and Dave - thank you both for your offers - for help getting it working and then feeding myself and family afterwards!

I'm still pulling together parts right now, so I don't yet know when I'll be in the position to take you up on the offers you made.  I'll keep in touch as things come together.

I got the high pressure hose off tonight.  The hose fittings are reusable and I would say the hose really looks like hydraulic hose.  I know it must not be since I would think hydraulic hose is too porous.  I did call CatCo today and they don't have a direct replacement that would be able to use my exiting fittings.  I would have to buy the hose and new fittings from CatCo.  So, I'll call JD tomorrow and see if he knows where I can get the hose that I will be able to reuse my fittings again with.  Any other ideas?

I used Aeroquip FC802 hose when I repaired my AC.  Works with R134 and reusable fittings.  I got it here:
