[C320-list] Adler-Barber Refrigerator

[Frank Drahos]

Following the discussion on the refrigerator... I replaced the refrigerator 
last year on my 1994 after the evaporator developed a leak that could no 
longer be repaired with epoxy sealant, so I THOUGHT I would just buy a new 
evaporator to use with the old compressor.  Well, as it turns out, they 
changed what gas the unit is charged with sometime ago and at the same time 
also changed the size of the tubing connectors between the evaporator and 
the compressor.  So you cannot connect a new evaporator to an old 
compressor.  I ended up buy a whole new unit (compressor and evaporator). 
The old unit has been sitting in the garage ever since.  (For Sale.... 
cheap, if any one is interested).

Also, I received June issue of Practical Sailor today - interesting article 
comparing refrigeration systems.
