Retrofit 10pa17c (replacing the old 10p15c)

The reason is simple
the 10p15c is expensive because most cars are not using them anymore
the 10p15c is special made for r12 and r12 has big molucules and the compressor has a easy job working with that ref

The 10pa17c has more power because it was made for r134a little molucules

My system is still r12 with the single fan
They replaced the 10p15c on my m103 engine after 87/88

So i can retrofit one
I bought the bracket from a m104 24 1993
The line from the stealer (because i have a r12 condensor bought new) i need the line between 1988 -1989 after that they also changed the condensor for r134a since i bought the old r12 new i need the line with the connection on top

I will use r437A (easy to get here) its a r12 replacement and works also better than r12

In order to get 134a working perfect i would need the double fan system and in order to get that i would need a stronger alternator another condensor etc etc

I will just fit a stronger compressor and will run it on a r12 system so you can imagine that a 10pa17c will not be stressed using a bigger molucule gas
