My A/C was kind of weak, so I took a thorough look at the system. No leaks, but the o-rings that help the pipes connect snuggly with the tank were deteriorated. (One was missing, I have no idea why).

Anyway, I need to find the right size to these O-rings. based on the deteriorated one, I haven't really been able to fnd the right size at any local hardware store.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

 

These are the r12 rings from malloy, just get them from ray
make sure what coolant media is in use in your car, later models use 134a

FCY0-61-J17 O-RING 6 1.31 7.86
FCY6-61-J17 O-RING 2 1.31 2.62
FCY1-61-J17 O-RING 3 1.31 3.93

 

Thanks!

I have a 95 with the 134 and I contacted HMKparts. Hopefully, I can get this done soon because I just moved to Florida, and the summer sucks here.

 

Most Mazda dealers have the various O-rings in stock, and they're pretty damn cheap. Helps if you bring them the part numbers you need, though.

Not a good idea to use hardware store O-rings - the o-rings need to be of the right material to be compatible with freon, and they need to be the proper metric size.

Thanks. . . There's a mazda dealer nearby that's actually really good. I'm sure they'll know. . .

All this time I've been told to "stay away from the dealer."
