Volvo AC: The Low-Side Charge Port 200 1984

posted by  someone claiming to be djriverdance on  Sat Jun 28 10:34 CST 2003 [RELATED]

After losing all my freon and oil when my high-side rubber host burst last September, I have gone and replaced components on my 1984 (York compressor) for the purposes of going to R134a. Problem: I think mine is one of those which has no tap on the low-pressure side.

At least, not one which I have found.

Some folks have "Teed" a port into the system. Where do I get one of these? And if it is a custom part, what are the necessary threads?

Or, am I not looking hard enough on my compressor for the Schrader valve? I have heard it is on the front, or on the side. CONFUSED!!!
