Having the dash out does not give you any more access to the expansion valve. The only approach is from under the dash. Like yours, my valve cover...
I sent my comp to Austin Rebuilders and it was not rebuildable. I installed a knock off
Based on my experience, do not skip removing the expansion valve. It is a pain in the ass but if you can pull off the plastic cover, it will be a...
I was told by Daniel(Recambi) that a "new" one was ~5k. some of the other vendors are ofering them for ~4K. Looks like there are no "new" ones...
Thanks for all the detailed photos. Different last few numbers and no Delphi sticker but my rebuilt comp looks very much like yours.
I see no distinct markings on the reman "Delphi". [ATTACH]
67Bmer, Would you mind taking pictures of your compressor from all angles to see if there are markings to identify it as Delphi? My ColdACworks...

Small Dewalt adjustable impacts work just fine. The little ones similar to a small electric hand drill. The lowest setting will not strip a bolt...
Why fix something that is not broken? Clean off the rust with a steel brush or Dremel tool with a steel brush wheel?
Thanks. I thought it was one solid multi-slot part.
Are they the "gang" type with multiple slots and if so what is the part #? Mine is cracked so I could use one as well.
awitalian has one listed on Ebay that looks just like the one you are looking for.
Easy with a ball joint puller and impact wrench.
