91 Accord A/C low pressure valve
Hi all,
My 91 Accord is A/C system is low on the refrigerant because of a small leak. I know that when I recharged the A/C during the last two summers, the mechanics used the R134a refrigerant. This time, I am thinking of doing the recharging myself. I was wondering, where is the low pressure valve in this A/C system located? Thank you. Fijoy |

91 Accord A/C low pressure valve
Are you trying to find where the low side **charging** port is?
If so it is on the AC line closer to the radiator, The Hi side port is closer to the firewall. I seem to remember that the thread size on these 2 ports are different (to prevent a mistake). If I remember correctly this car used R-12 freon. HTH JerryR "Fijoy" > wrote in message ... > Hi all, > > My 91 Accord is A/C system is low on the refrigerant because of a > small leak.

91 Accord A/C low pressure valve
Thank you. Yes, I am trying to find the low side charging port. Seems
to me that one of the previous owners probably converted the A/C system to work with R134a.
