-Ant.

the original compressor it had when i bought the car, the guy said it ust needed recharged, but after i got the car home, i seen the compressor had a hole on the backside of it. so i called that one bad, bought the random companies remanufactured compressors, charged everything up at a shop and it wouldnt get cold, just started off cool and got hotter. went back to the shop and told them that it was a remanufacture and they said if it wasnt a good company they probably didnt replace all the seals and what not. so i was just like whatever, went home took it apart and it looked like shit inside so just assumed it was never reman'd and trashed it.

how would i clean out the lines?
