  • Aspire A/C Compressor Install?

    To all those who have the Aspire engine in your Festiva. How did you run the hard lines to the A/C compressor?

    thanks for any info

    custom high and low sides... unless you run the aspire condensor and the hard lines somehow magicly lign up and mate.

      lol, I'm sure I could find a shop around here somewhere that would do lines. Are you sure the OEM Low side line won't work? I've got the High side & it for sure won't work.

        rather certain, festys and aspires have different compressors and line routing.

            im in the middle of figuring this out now. the line coming from the condensor, dont know if its high or low u need from a aspire. the other line however is tricky. like festyboy said they are routed different. neither the festy or the aspire line is a direct fit. ive got one of my mechanic buddys cutting and rewelding the festy line so it comes out of the compressor straigh up. ill post pics when its done

              should be the high pressure line to condensor. Not sure how you made it work lol either way i'd be glad to see some pics & figure this situation out haha.

                also, festiva routing varries depending if it was factory or dealer installed.
