well maybe i'll have to buy a new set up frpm mikes.as I need new hoses and lines too and the calibur may need rebuilt too..looks like mikes have 77 stuff and newer,I dont know if the dealer will have them, if they do i bet it will cost as much as what mikes sells the whole set up for.
I stoped in at the dealer to check on, apair of condencers, as im running points.60 bucks, I said no thanks.. im not going to pay you 60 for something I can buy for 15,,

Have you tried taking apart and cleaning up the m/c you have? It may be all it needs.
