Connecting Lines & Fittings
NOTE:
All R-134a based systems use 1/2"-16 ACME threaded fittings. Ensure all replacement parts match the connections of the system being worked on.
Always use a new gasket or "O" ring when connecting lines or fittings. Coat "O" ring with refrigerant oil and ensure it is not twisted during installation. Always use 2 wrenches to prevent damage to lines and fittings.
