I'm hope the collective knowledge of BF can help me with this one...
Just fitted a nearly new AC condenser to my bongo unfortunately the large screw fitting by the high pressure valve is a different size, other than that all is identical. Anyone come across this before and know a way around it as the condenser is in such good condition that I would like to keep it. Ideally I would like to replace the pipe back to the pump but need to know which parts to order etc.
Thanks
Jim

This any help? http://www.lushprojects.com/bongopartsm ... 1of02.html Check it covers your vehicle, I think this is for the 95-97 diesel, but I think they're all much the same for the ac.

Thanks, Just checked through seems to show the same part number 61-480 for every type of bongo listed.... Conecting pipe numbers are the same also. Could it be a Ford one?

I doubt it, I think the only real Ford compatibility is with the Ford Ranger engine, as that is front mounted & they have completely different ancillaries. I don't know that Ford supply any spares for the Freda?
May be worth trying any of the bongo breakers?

Re: A/C condenser 2 types?
Looks as if I have got myself a V6 condenser which are ever so slightly different to the diesel item....
Would still like to try and plumb as it's in such good condition (and was only £25). Is there a parts list for the V6? Would be good to find out if there are any common parts elsewhere in the AC pipes spaghetti where I can bodge a cut and paste job.
Thanks again

Re: A/C condenser 2 types?
Should be in the lushprojects schematics there somewhere?

Crikey, that was a good price. I just paid a lot more for a second hand one. Pleased to find it though.XXX wrote:Looks as if I have got myself a V6 condenser which are ever so slightly different to the diesel item....
