Re: Re: Ranger a/c unit

Thanks guys............

This is what I learned in case it helps someone in the future.

Just add refrigerant only, no oil or other additive needed unless you changed the accumulator or you see lots of oil that has leaked out. First can of R-134a can be added upside down until compressor starts to engage and stays on. I actually layed 1st can on its side. After compressor engages hold can upright as not to damage the compressor. Put the R-134a can in warm water to speed up the process. Pressure gauge highly recommended.

Low side is on left side of engine on accumulator (small vertical tank) 1992 4.0 V-6
