Hey guys,

I've got a 73 with the add on ac. The whole thing actually works fairly well but I've figured out that the expansion valve is stuck. Any ideas on where to get a replacement? Thought I'd get the parts and then do this work in the winter.

Just got it working again after frying the idler pulley. Sure made driving it unpleasant here in Central Texas for a while so I am looking forward to improving it with the replacement expansion valve.

Maybe I can clean the valve and fix it. However I doubt it since this is the original. May be a bugger to get loose.:ermm:

regards

Don

OK, I just found this place.

They also have a complete ac kit just for the Zs and their prices are reasonable.

Now I just need to make sure that the threads are correct.

regards

Don
