INSPECTION
1) Make sure the condenser fins are free from dust and
insects. If the fins are clogged, clean by blowing air or water
through them.
To prevent dust and water from getting into the condenser,
this work must be done when the condenser is installed in
an actual vehicle.
2} Check all of the condenser's parts to see if they show any
sign of oil seepage. Should oil ooze or gas leak from a particu-
lar part, replace it with a new one.
