Re: New or Reconditioned?

Okay I know very little about cars but the guy who will be replacing the compressor was a former mechanic and has all the tools to do the job. Since he doesn't have a regular business I'm responsible for getting the parts. He gave me this parts list:

1. A/C Accumulator
2. A/C Orifice Tube
3. A/C Oil
4. A/C Flush Solvent
5. A/C Compressor

I went to the autoacforum link but where do I find the good brand rebuilts? Would one of them be the ACKits that sell Seltec compressors?

When you buy a reconditioned compressor do you need a Accumulator and Orifice tube that fits that particular brand or are they standard?

My biggest obstacle is I need to be able to buy a compressor (and all the other parts I need) and have it sometime next week to be put in.

I guess you must think that whatever I buy is going to be better than the Four Seasons new or reconditioned?
