The S-Z 532 datasheet shows an R-134a version later in the serial numbers. I suppose I could study the parts lists to see what changed and order the R-134a parts. The tools such as the manifold gauge set, vacuum pump, reclaiming tank, and others should not be expensive. I have enough ice containers (plastic peanut butter jars, extra chunky of course) to last years, plus I can move the downstairs refrigerator into the S-Z hole while I'm working on it. I'll gain a valuable skill and tool set, that I can use on other units in my sphere of influence. It would be nice to tackle this "Refrigerator" once and for all. The thread link above (thank you) will help with my issues check list. Oops, after more thought, "You wouldn't want to put R-134a in it." doesn't necessarily mean stick with the R-12, but there may be a better alternative. I'll have to work on this some more. -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
