I have had a refrigerant leak from the hose that duckes down up by the windshield. Not the compressor one....anyway just ordered the new hose. Do you guys know if there is anything i need to do special other than pulling the old one off and replacing ????? Tks.

 

Have the system evacuated for one thing!

Be very careful removing the old hose. If you break the evaporator stem, you're sunk. Make sure to support the stem so it doesn't twist off!

Use new o-rings, of course

Can i evacuate the system or is this for the professional?

 

Just read a little about the procedure and watched a vid. Itll be a week or so before the new hose gets here so i will have time to do more research.........any hints tips....settings much appreciated........tks

 

Best and safest....and legal.....to have it done professionally.


Cheers
