    I am in the process of performing a major service on my 94 348 Spider. While I have easy access to the AC system lines I would like to replace all connector orings. A search of the forum and google did not help so I am asking if anyone in the brotherhood has been able to source them. Thanks in advance.

    Agreed, the Ferrari o-rings are not unique. I bought a box of various sized AC o-rings on Amazon, there are quite a few similar kits for sale there.

    Ditto what others have said. Please ensure they are O rings for AC systems as temps and pressures vary at different points in the system. Also lube them with a AC compressor oil during install.

    Might also want to consider changing the accumulator and any filters while you are at it.

    Make sure that you use Viton o-rings (usually green in color), to replace the original buns-n (black) o-orings for the A/C system.
