    Bill, you got over 200k on a single compressor? Jeeze, mine is making a ridiculous "hooting" sound and my car doesn't even have 100k on it yet :P

    I can decide on the orifice either, I just have a leak and that strange noise, so if it isn't leaking back near the orifice, I may just do the evap and compressor.

    Morad parts kicks ass for these jobs, I just can't spend as much as places want for a brand new one.

    Rockauto had a Delphi with my name on it for $165 plus shipping. Didn't say reman either. I'm unsure if it is or not.. for $165 it's likely reman.

    Pretty sure my fuel filter has 220K on it as well. Same as the fuel pump (which I run pretty dry all the time)

    I got the same delphi compressor from rockauto. The replacment was a breeze. sitting underneath the car i was able to get the 2 bolts in back along with the nut holding on the lines, and the 3 in front where beyond easy with the passenger tire removed. She came out with ease right through the wheel well. Accumulator was even easier. I didnt do the orifice tube though. Even with the master cylinder and ABS out of the way, it still looks like the power booster will have to come out. F that.

    You can sneak in there... it's always a pain. Pretty sure even though the FSM didn't say it..there's a special Jtool for undoing those things
