Hey fellas I have a 92' Accord and I want to recharge the AC etc. I purchase a 134a Kit etc. from advance auto parts...where do I connect the switches etc. I dont know what to do any help would be appreciated thanks.

 

Blue line goes to the low side, red line goes to the high side. Truthfully, it's so simple even a dummy could do it. The lines are different sizes and use different size connection. To make it real easy, the low side will be the line going into the firewall.

 

theres only 1 line comming out from the compressor...and thats it! where are the other lines what blue line/red line there isn't any! ...Man I guess I'm a dummy then....thanks anywayz..

 

I'm talking about the lines on the kit. You've got 2 lines with connectors on them, right? One is high, one is low. Connect the low side line to the tube going into the firewall, and then the high side line goes onto the other tube. If you take a picture of your cars A/C system, I'll go through with paint and circle where you need to hook the lines up to if you'd like.

 

wasnt your car was originally equiped with r12 refr.?? and you should have all that vacuumed out prior to pumping your system full of 134a. There is also a bunch of other stuff you should do (ie. change compressor oil, evaporator) if you want your conversion to go smooth and not have to worry about locking up your compressor or getting warm air out of the thing.

 

Hmmm I bought the 134a kit etc....I not really sure but maybe I still do have the R12 setup? It is a 1992' Accord....Imma take it to the mechanic...thanks for both of your help fellas...oh and the kit has only one line comming from the 134 can....thats it! It says to stick the other end to the low pressure side etc...thats my problem where that other line.....this isn't a new car ya know...

 

If you read the label under the hood, it'll tell you which kind of refrigerent it uses and how much it takes. Like most places these days, neither of the shops I've worked at for the past 5 years mess with R12 anymore.

 

THANKS........
