A/C General Servicing
COMPRESSOR OIL CHECK
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
CAUTION: When discharging air conditioning system, use only approved
refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment. Make every attempt
to avoid discharging refrigerant into the atmosphere.
ISOLATING COMPRESSOR - GRAND WAGONEER ONLY
1) Connect service gauge set to the compressor service valves
and open compressor valves slightly (turn clockwise). Start engine and\
operate air conditioning. Slowly turn compressor suction valve
clockwise toward closed (front-seated) position.
2) When suction pressure is reduced to zero or less, turn off
engine and compressor and quickly turn suction valve stem in to full
front-seated position. Suction pressure should be slightly above zero.
Turn discharge valve into front-seated position.
3) To check oil lever, slowly open crankcase plug to relieve
any remaining pressure. After oil level is correct, cap service gauge
parts on both valves. Back-seat suction service valve to allow
refrigerant to enter compressor. Open discharge valve halfway.
4) Loosen discharge service valve cap, allowing refrigerant
pressure to force air out of compressor. Back-seat service valve and
tighten cap. Compressor is now ready for operation.
REFRIGERANT OIL
Only new, pure, moisture-free refrigerant oil should be used
in the air conditioning system. This oil is highly refined and
dehydrated to a point where moisture content is less than 10 parts per
million. The oil container must be tightly closed at all times when
not in use, or moisture will be absorbed from the air and introduced
into the refrigeration system.
DISCHARGING SYSTEM
CAUTION: When discharging air conditioning system, use only approved
refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment. Make every attempt
to avoid discharging refrigerant into the atmosphere.
If compressor has stem-type service valves, it can be
isolated and removed without discharging entire system. Otherwise,
discharge system completely using approved refrigerant
recovery/recycling equipment before loosening any fittings.
DISCONNECTING LINES & FITTINGS
After system is discharged, carefully clean area around all
fittings to be opened. Always use 2 wrenches when tightening or
loosening fittings to avoid twisting or distorting lines. Cap or plug
all openings as soon as lines are removed. Do not remove caps until
immediately before connections are made. This will keep entry of air
and moisture to a minimum, reducing the chance of damage to
components.

CAN TAP INSTALLATION
FLAT TYPE SEAL CANS
On cam-lock or one-piece can taps, first turn the handle out
to the fully open position. Securely engage the locking lugs over the
flange of the can, and lock them in place by turning the cam lock or
locking nut. Screw the tap assembly into the adapter so the sealing
gasket is fully seated against the can top. Turn the tap inward to
pierce the can and close the tap. DO NOT open the tap until ready to
purge the service hose or dispense refrigerant into the system.
On 2-piece can taps, be certain the tap handle is turned
fully in, so it is closed. Check that the locking base is turned to
its outer limit. Securely engage the locking lugs over the can
flange. Turn the entire tap assembly (without disturbing the closed
setting) down into the locking base to pierce the can. Do not open
the tap until ready to dispense into system.
SCREW TYPE SEAL CANS
Ensure can tap is fully closed. Screw refrigerant can into
can tap fitting until tight. This will pierce the can. Connect tap to
center hose on manifold gauge set. DO NOT open tap until ready to
dispense R-12 into system.
WARNING: DO NOT open high side hand valve while air conditioning
system is in operation. This high pressure could rupture
can or possibly burst fitting at safety can valve,
resulting in damage and physical injury.
COMPRESSOR OIL CHECK
GENERAL PROCEDURES
Some models have compressor-mounted service valves that allow
oil checking by isolating the compressor. On all others, system must
be discharged, using approved refrigerant recovery/recycling
equipment, and compressor may need to be removed to check oil. After
oil level is checked and adjusted, A/C system must be evacuated and
recharged.
ISOLATING COMPRESSOR
1) Connect manifold gauge set to service valves on the
compressor. Close both gauge valves. Open both service valves to
themid-position.
2) Start engine and operate air conditioning. Turn suction
service valve slowly clockwise toward front-seated position. When
suction pressure is reduced to zero or less, stop engine and quickly
close suction service valve (front-seated).
3) Front-seat the discharge valve. Loosen oil check plug
slowly to release any internal pressure. Service valves can now be
removed from compressor and compressor removed from vehicle (if
necessary). Purge compressor after servicing.
PURGING COMPRESSOR
1) Remove gauge set and place caps on service valve ports.
Back-seat the suction service valve to allow refrigerant to enter
compressor.

in the brake fluid.
4) Using proper sized rod, apply and release master cylinder
until no air bubbles exist in brake fluid flow. Once all air bubbles
are gone from master cylinder secure cap and install.
5) Bleeder tubes should be left installed on master cylinder
until master cylinder in installed. Master cylinder must be bled at
brake lines and wheels after installation.
Bleeding On Vehicle
1) Install master cylinder on vehicle after bench bleeding.
Remove bleeder lines and install brake lines. DO NOT fully tighten
brake lines at this time.
2) Slowly force brake pedal to the floor and hold in this
position. Tighten brake lines and release brake pedal. Repeat
procedure until no air bubbles exist at brake lines. Remaining wheel
cylinder or calipers may be require bleeding.
HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVES
Hold Off Valve
1) Prior to the pressure tank bleeding procedure, the hold
off valve incorporated in the combination valve must be correctly
positioned. This allows brake fluid to flow through the combination
valve to the entire brake system.
2) The valve stem of the hold off valve may be retained using
tools available from Chrysler Motors (C-4121) or General Motors
(J-23709) during bleeding procedure. See Figs. 2 and 3. Remove valve
retainer once brake bleeding procedure is complete.
CAUTION: DO NOT use rigid clamp to position valve stem. Damage to
the valve assembly may result causing brake failure.

* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
NOTE: All SERVICE SCHEDULES are listed for normal service
vehicles. If vehicle is operated under severe service
conditions, see SEVERE SERVICE REQUIREMENTS (PERFORM
W/SERVICE SCHEDULES) for items requiring additional
maintenance.
NOTE: This article contains scheduled maintenance service
information. Fluid types and capacities listed with each
service in this article are only those necessary to perform
that scheduled service. For specifications pertaining to
fluid capacities for the entire vehicle, fuse and circuit
breaker identification, wheel and tire size, battery type,
warranty information, or model identification refer to the
MAINTENANCE INFORMATION article in this section.
CAUTIONS & WARNINGS
AIR CONDITIONING MAINTENANCE
WARNING: NEVER add A/C refrigerant to correct a non-cooling problem
unless pressure gauges are connected to the system by a
certified technician. Lack of cooling may be caused by a
restriction, therefore adding refrigerant can cause a
dangerous pressure rise.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (If Equipped)
The anti-lock brake system contains electronic equipment that
can be susceptible to interference caused by improperly installed or
high output radio transmitting equipment. Since this interference
could cause the possible loss of the anti-lock braking capability,
such equipment should be installed by qualified professionals.
On models equipped with anti-lock brake systems, ALWAYS
observe the following cautions:
* DO NOT attempt to bleed hydraulic system without first
referring to the appropriate ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM article
in the BRAKES Section.
* DO NOT mix tire sizes. As long as tires remain close to the
original diameter, increasing the width is acceptable.
Rolling diameter must be identical for all 4 tires. Some
manufacturers recommend tires of the same brand, style and
type. Failure to follow this precaution may cause inaccurate
wheel speed readings.
* Use ONLY recommended brake fluids. DO NOT use silicone brake
fluids in an ABS-equipped vehicle.
BATTERY WARNING
WARNING: When battery is disconnected, vehicles equipped with
