[DeTomaso] Flushing the AC Condenser and Heater Core

[Mike & Elizabeth]

I've got both the AC condenser and the heater core out of the car for the
restoration and need to flush them before installing a new AC system.  The
AC has never worked/been used in the 16+ years I've owned the car.  I'll
also be setting the new system up for R134.  I'd like to ask the collective
for advice on the best way to flush the condenser and the AC side of the
heater core so they are clear of all old oils and chemicals before
installation.

 

Should I take them to an automotive AC shop?  Not sure how they would
pressurize them without being installed as a system.

 

Thanks

Mike Thomas
