"as I ride with my a/c on... I have fond memories of sweaty oily saturdays and spewing R12 into the air. THANKS for all you do!

My drivers:
1987 190D 2.5Turbo
1987 560SL convertible
1987 190D 2.5-5SPEED!!!

1987 300TD
2005 Dodge Sprinter 2500 158"WB
1994GMC 2500 6.5Turbo truck... I had to put the ladder somewhere!

That's pretty mild compared to what I was saying as I went through a $4 box of English sized ones

I know what you mean!


jt20 - maybe, but the OEM part was an eclip, and after finding out what happens when that one little part fails (full throttle) I decided to go with the e-clip. I am a bit concerned that the only metric eclips I could get were carbon-steel rather than stainless, but hopefully they are strong enough. I am not too worried about the carbon-steel rusting under the hood!
