ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
GENERAL REPAIR PROCEDURE
Precautions for Replacement or Repair of Air
Conditioning Parts
There are certain procedures, practices and pre­
cautions
that should be followed when servicing air
conditioning systems:
• Keep your work area clean.
•
Always wear safety goggle and protective gloves
when working on refrigerant systems.
• Beware of the danger of carbon monoxide fumes
caused by running the engine.
• Beware of discharged refrigerant in enclosed or
improperly ventilated garages.
• Always disconnect the negative battery cable and
discharge and recover the refrigerant
whenever
repairing the air conditioning system.
• When discharging and recovering the refrigerant,
do not allow refrigerant to discharge too fast; it
will draw compressor oil out of the system.
• Keep moisture and contaminants out of the sys­
tem.
When disconnecting or removing any lines
or parts, use plugs or caps to close the fittings
immediately.
Never remove the caps or plugs until the lines or
parts are reconnected or installed.
•
When disconnecting or reconnecting the lines,
use
two wrenches to support the line fitting, to
prevent from twisting or other damage.
• Always install new 0-rings whenever a connec­
tion is disassembled.
• Before connecting any hoses or lines, apply new
specified compressor oil to the 0-rings.
• When removing and replacing any parts which
require discharging the refrigerant circuit, the
operations described in
this section must be per­
formed in the following sequence:
1. Use the J-39500 (ACR4
: HFC-134a Refrigerant
Recovery/Recycling/Recharging/System)
or
equivalent to thoroughly discharge and re­
cover
the refrigerant.
2. Remove and replace the defective part.
3.
After evacuation, charge the air conditioning
system and check for leaks.
Repair of Refrigerant Leaks
Refrigerant Line Connections
Install new 0-rings, if required. When disconnecting
or connecting lines, use two wrenches to prevent the
connecting
portion from twisting or becoming
damaged. (Fig. 1 B-15) Fig.
18-15
When connecting the refrigerant
line at the block
joint, securely insert the projecting portion of the
joint portion into the connecting hole on the unit side
and secure
with a bolt.
Apply specified compressor oil to the 0-rings prior
to connecting. (Fig. 18-16)
CAUTION:
Compressor (PAGI oil to be used varies according
to compressor model. Be sure to apply oil specified
for the model of compressor.

• Use two wrenches to prevent twisting and
damage to the line.
•
Do not over tighten.
2. Perform a leak test on the refrigerant line fitting.
3. If the leak is still present, discharge and recover
the refrigerant from the system.
4. Replace the 0-rings.
• 0-rings cannot be reused. Always replace
with new ones.
• Be sure to apply specified compressor oil to
the new 0-rings.
5. Retighten the refrigerant line fitting to the spe­
cified torque.
• Use two wrenches to prevent twisting and
damage to the line.
6. Evacuate, charge and retest the system.
Leaks in the Hose
If the compressor inlet or outlet hose is leaking, the
entire hose must be replaced. Refrigerant hose must
not be cut or spliced for repair.

Recovery, Recycling, Evacuation and Charging
Handling HFC-134a:
Air conditioning systems contain HFC-134a.
This is a chemical mixture which requires special
handling procedures to avoid personal injury.
• Always wear safety goggles and protective
gloves.
•
Always work in a well-ventilated area. Do not
weld or steam clean on or near any vehicle­
installed air conditioning lines or components.
• If HFC-134a should come in contact with any part
of the body, flush the exposed area with cold
water and immediately seek medical help.
•
If it is necessary to transport or carry any
container of HFC-134a in a vehicle, do not carry it
in the passenger compartment.
• If it is necessary to fill a small HFC-134a container
from a large one, never fill the container com­
pletely. Space should always be allowed above
the liquid for expansion.
• HFC-134a and R-12 should never be mixed as their
compositions are not the same.
• HFC-134a PAG oil tends to absorb moisture more
quickly than R-12 mineral oil and, therefore,
should be handled more carefully.
•
Keep HFC-134a containers stored below 40°C
(100°F).
WARNING: • SHOULD
HFC-134a CONTACT YOUR EYE(S),
CONSULT
A DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY.
•
DO NOT RUB THE AFFECTED EYE(S). INSTEAD,
SPLASH QUANTITIES
OF FRESH COLD WATER
OVER THE AFFECTED AREA TO GRADUALLY
RAISE THE TEMPERATURE OF THE RE­
FRIGERANT ABOVE THE FREEZING POINT.
• OBTAIN
PROPER MEDICAL TREATMENT AS
SOON
AS POSSIBLE. SHOULD THE HFC-134a
TOUCH THE SKIN, THE INJURY MUST BE
TREATED THE SAME AS SKIN WHICH HAS BEEN
FROSTBITTEN OR FROZEN.

Refrigerant Recovery
The refrigerant must be discharged and recovered by
using the J-39500 (ACR4
: HFC-134a Refrigerant Re­
covery/Recycling/Recharging/System) or equivalent
before removing or mounting air conditioning parts.
1. Connect the high and low charging hoses of the
ACR4 (or equivalent) as shown below. (Fig.
18-19)
J-39500
(High side)
Fig. 18-19
2. Recover the refrigerant by following the Manu­
facturer's Instructions.
3. When a part is removed, put a cap or a plug on
the connecting portion so that dust, dirt or
moisture cannot get into it.
Refrigerant Recycling
Recycle the refrigerant recovered by J-39500
(ACR4: HFC-134a Refrigerant Recovery/Recycling/Re­
charging/System) or equivalent.
For the details of the actual operation, follow the
steps in the ACR4 (or equivalent) Manufacturer's In­
structions.
Evacuation of the Refrigerant System
(Fig. 1 B-20)
NOTE:
Explained below is a method using a vacuum
pump. Refer to the ACR4 (or equivalent) manufac­
turer's instructions when evacuating the system
with a ACR4 (or equivalent).
Air and moisture in the refrigerant will cause prob­
lems in the air conditioning system.
Therefore,
before charging the refrigerant, be sure to
evacuate air and moisture thoroughly from the
system.

2. Discharge and recover the refrigerant.
3. Connect the center hose of the gauge manifold
set to the vacuum pump inlet.
4. Operate the vacuum pump, open shutoff valve
and then open both hand valves.
5. When the low-pressure gauge indicates ap­
prox. 750 mmHg (30 inHg), continue the evacu­
ation for 5 minutes or more.
6. Close both hand valves and stop the vacuum
pump.
7. Check to ensure that the pressure does not
change after 10 minutes or more.
• If the pressure changes, check the system for
leaks.
• If leaks
occur, retighten the refrigerant line
connections and repeat the evacuation steps.
8. If no leaks are found, again operate the vacuum
pump for 20 minutes or more. After confirming
that the gauge manifold pressure is at 750
mmHg (30 inHg), close both hand valves;
9. Close positive shutoff valve.
Stop the vacuum pump and disconnect the
center hose from the vacuum pump.

COMPRESSOR OVERHAUL 10-3
GENERAL INFORMATION
COMPRESSOR OIL
OIL SPECIFICATION
• The HFC-134a system requires a synthetic
(PAG) compressor oil whereas the R-12 system
requires a
mineral compressor oil. The two oils
must never be mixed.
• Compressor (PAG) oil varies according to com­
pressor model. Be sure to use oil specified for
the model of compressor.
• Always use HFC-134a Vane Rotary Type Com­
pressor Oil
(AIPDN Part No. 2-90188-301-0)
HANDLING OF OIL
• The oil should be free from moisture, dust,
metal powder, etc.
• Do not mix with other oil.
•
The water content in the oil increases when
exposed to the air. After use, seal oil from air
immediately.
(HFC-134a Vane Rotary Compressor Oil absorbs
moisture very easily.)
•
The compressor oil must be stored in steel
containers, not in plastic containers.
COMPRESSOR OIL CHECK
The oil used to lubricate the compressor is circul­
ating with the refrigerant.
Whenever replacing any component of the system
or a large amount of gas leakage occurs, add oil to
maintain the original amount of oil.
Oil Capacity.
Capacity
total in system 150cc (5.0 fl.oz.)

Checking and Adjusting for Used Compressor
1. Perform Oil return operation.
(Refer to "Oil Return Operation" in this section.)
2. Discharge and recover refrigerant and remove
the compressor.
3. Drain the compressor oil and measure the
extracted oil with a measuring cylinder (Fig. 1 D-
2).
Fig. 1D-2
4. If the amount of oil drained is much less than
90cc (3.0 fl.oz.), some refrigerant may have
leaked out. Conduct leak tests on connections of
each system, and if necessary, repair or replace
faulty parts.
5. Check the compressor oil for contamination.
(Refer to "Contamination of Compressor Oil" in
this section.)
6. Adjust oil level following the procedure below
(Fig. 1 D-3).
Collected Amount
more than 90cc
(3.0 fl.oz.)
Charging Amount

less than 90cc (3.0 fl.oz.) 90cc (3.0 fl.oz.)
7. Install the compressor, then evacuate, charge
and
perform oil return operation.
8. Check system operation.
When it is impossible to perform oil return oper­
ation, the compressor oil should be checked in the
following order:
1. Discharge and recover refrigerant and remove
the compressor.
2. Drain the compressor oil and measure the
extracted oil with a measuring cylinder.
3. Check the oil for contamination.
4. If more than 90cc (3.0 fl.oz.) of oil is extracted
from the compressor, supply same amount of
oil to the compressor to be installed.
If
the amount of oil extracted is less than 90cc
(3.0 fl.oz.),
recheck the compressor oil in the
following order:
5. Supply 90cc (3.0 fl.oz.) of oil to the compressor
and install it onto the vehicle.

150cc (5.0 fl.oz.) of oil is charged in compressor
(service parts).
So it is necessary to drain the
proper
amount of oil from the new compressor.
1. Perform oil return operation.
2. Discharge and recover refrigerant and remove
the compressor.
3. Drain the compressor oil and measure the
extracted
oil.
4. Check the compressor oil for contamination.
5. Adjust oil level as required.

6. Evacuate, charge and perform oil return oper­
ation.
7. Check system operation.
CONTAMINATION OF COMPRESSOR OIL
Unlike engine oil, no cleaning agent is added to the
compressor
oil. Even if the compressor runs for a
long period
of time (approximately 1 season), the
oil never becomes contaminated as long
as there is
nothing
wrong with the compressor or its method
of use.
Inspect the extracted oil for any of the following
conditions:
• The capacity of the oil has increased.
• The oil has changed color to red.
• Foreign substances, metal powder, etc., are
present in the oil.
If any of these conditions exists, compressor oil
is contaminated. Whenever contaminated com­
pressor
oil is discovered, the receiver/dryer must
be
replaced.
OIL RETURN OPERATION
There is close affinity between the oil and the
refrigerant. During normal operation, part
of the oil
recirculates
with the refrigerant in the system.
When checking the
amount of oil in the system, or
replacing any component of the system, the com­
pressor
must be run in advance for oil return oper­
ation. The procedure is as
follows:
1. Open the all doors and engine hood.
2. Start the engine and air conditioning switch is
"ON" and Set the fan control knob at its hig­
hest position.
3. Run the compressor for more than 20 minutes
between
800 and 1,000 rpm in order to operate
the system.
4. Stop the engine.
REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENT PARTS
When replacing system component parts, supply
the following
amount of oil to the component parts
to be installed.
Component parts to be installed Amount of oil
