    Question A/c compressor

    My A/C Compressor a (DENSO) lost the rear seal so i decide to upgrade it to a (KEIHIN) i know by doing this i will need to change the mounting bracket to the (KEIHIN). But this is what i need to know? can i use the hoes from the (DENSO) on the (KEIHIN)? I went to http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...IT+%28DENSO%29 and they dont show any hoes for the (KEIHIN). So can any one help me with my Q?

    Hoses are different, I switched from keihin to denso kit and the koses were different.

    Uh, the Denso is the better compressor. The Keihin earned the nickname "8-year compressor" from mechanics. My original went bad when the car was two years old and I had to replace it again at ten years. I put in the kit from Honda that includes a Denso compressor and it has been in the car for ten years so far.

    This is good news to me. Since I put the Denso kit in myself. And the only thing that will ever be cycling thru its hoses is R12.

    Switching from Denso to Keihin is definitely NOT an upgrade.
