General Description
5. O-RING CONNECTIONS
Use new O-rings.
In order to keep the O-rings free of lint which will
cause a refrigerant gas leak, perform operations
without gloves and shop cloths.
Apply the compressor oil to the O-rings to avoid
sticking, then install them.
Use a torque wrench to tighten the O-ring fittings:
Over-tightening will damage the O-ring and tube
end distortion.
If the operation is interrupted before completing a
pipe connection, recap the tubes, components, and
fittings with a plug or tape to prevent foreign mat-
ters from entering.
Visually check the surfaces and mating surfaces
of O-rings, threads, and connecting points. If a fail-
ure is found, replace the applicable parts.
Install the O-rings at right angle to the tube
beards. Use compressor oil specified in the service man-
ual to lubricate the O-rings.
Apply the oil to the top and sides of the O-rings be-
fore installation.
Apply compressor oil to the bead of tube.
After tightening, use a clean cloth to remove ex-
cess compressor oil from the connections and any
oil which may have run on the vehicle body or other
parts.
If any leakage is suspected after tightening, do
not retighten the connections, disconnect the con-
nections, remove the O-rings, and check the O-
rings, threads, and connections.
D: PREPARATION TOOL
CAUTION:
When working on vehicles with the HFC-134a
system, only use HFC-134a specified tools and
parts. Do not mix with CFC-12 tools and parts. If
HFC-134a and CFC-12 refrigerant or compres-
sor oil is mixed, poor lubrication will result and
the compressor itself may be destroyed.
In order to help prevent mixing HFC-134a and
CFC-12 parts and liquid, the tool and screw
type and the type of service valves used are dif-
ferent. The gas leak detectors for the HFC-134a
and CFC-12 systems must also not be inter-
changed.(A) Seal

Syringe
A graduated plastic SYRINGE will be needed to add oil back into the
system. The syringe can be available at a pharmacy or a drug store.
Vacuum pump
A VACUUM PUMP (in good working condition) is necessary, and can
be available at either a refrigerant supplier or an automotive equipment
supplier.
Can tap
A CAN TAP for the 397 g (14 oz) can is available at an automotive
equipment supplier.
Thermometer
Pocket THERMOMETERS are available at either a industrial hardware
store or a refrigerant suppliers. Illustration Tools and Equipment

NOTE:
When the sunload sensor is checked indoors or in the shade, open circuit might be indicated. Always check
the sunload sensor at a place where sun shines directly on it.
