I am replacing the A/C condenser in my 98 because some of the fins were bent and leaking. When I swap this out this weekend do I also need to put in a new A/C accumilator? Anyone know if that is a must or will the old one be fine? Thanks

You should be fine w/ old one no need to replace. You need to put under vacumm tho to get all the moisture and air out.

You dont need to replace any components, only if it worked.previously. also, go to a shop that can remove the moisture from the system and recharge it properly.
