    The evap in my wife's 850 was needing a replacement before she totalled it. I wasn't looking forward to that project. In a sick way I'm glad she totalled the car, saved me a LOT of work.

    No calls from the other party in the wreck since I blocked their numbers.

    Default Got him all done, the only thing i really hate about the

    whole job is the spring locks... This copper evap went in real hard on the spring locks, if i ever have to take it apart i'll be screwed. Other than that its just a pain in the ass because of all the parts as you know. I have one rattle that he's going to bring it back for. Its on the steering column cover so it should be easy. At least its not a real dirty job.

    the spring locks wouldn't be half as bad if they weren't on hard lines
