Hi j-d,
Great to hear from you! Hope you are well...
I checked out the link and no hoses...I think the only way to get them is through the dealer - and they are quite expensive. I think I'm going to try and flush them out and see what happens.
How hard is it to replace the evaporator? Doesn't 'look' too bad - everything seems accessible from under the hood. Parts are cheap, as mentioned in that article - I will spend around $300 to replace everything (compressor, condenser, drier, evaporator, orifice tube), and I'm planning on going back with R12.
I've already removed the compressor, drier and condenser...pretty easy from here to flush out the hoses.
Not going to worry about the vacuum issue - haven't noticed any vacuum related problems since I've owned the coach.
