November 16, 200816 yr comment_266538 Does your car have factory (4 speed fan control with the logo 'AC' as far left position on the panel) or non factory air (3 speed fan control with the word 'OFF' as the far left position on the panel). There are two heater control valves depending on which system. Both are somewhat difficult to find. For the factory system I'd try the Nissan part numbers for the rec/drier and the exp. valve. For the non factory system you can use the generic type rec/drier but you'd have to know which evaporator it has to know which exp. valve you'd need.

November 16, 200816 yr Author comment_266540 Both '78's have factory A/C. I bought a Nissan replacement receiver/drier from Courtesy Parts a while back. Even though their system showed it to be the correct part, the fittings are placed differently from the original that was on the car so I couldn't use it.
