it's under the right hinge inside the engine compartment(as your looking into engine it would be left) look up underneath as high as you can see it against the firewall. goodluck
You add freon to the low side fitting,top front,on the ac compressor
The 3.8 was built from the 1960s into the 2000s The location of the Refrigerant fittings will vary by Brand, Model, Year and trim level.
You need to use charging gauges.
The low pressure charging valve is on the accumulator........
try charging it. you can get the freon at your local autoparts store
I don't know the name, but it takes the R-134A fitting. It's the same fitting on the hose that goes on the can. Hope that helps.
Since a 1997 Intrepid has a high pressure cut off switch, it is OK to put a whole 1 pound can of Freon in it. You will need to do this after charging the system.
That's not necessary. It's already under pressure.
Buy a recharge kit from an auto parts store. This will include a charging valve/hose, and cans of freon. It's best to get a charge hose with a pressure gauge on it. Screw can onto tap end of the charging hose, turn piercing valve clockwise until it stops. Attach quick connector to the low side outlet of the AC system (this fitting is foolproof. It will only fit on the correct connector). Turn vehicle on, turn AC on MAX with fan on high. Go back to the charging hose and turn the piercing valve counter clockwise to let the freon out of the can and into the hose, into the AC system. Make sure AC clutch is cycling to ensure movement of freon into the AC system. Do not overcharge the system, or you may burst parts. Most systems only hold 2 cans worth. To achieve best results, you must evacuate the entire AC system of all freon & pressure before charging.
The low side fitting should be on the left side of the firewall
when you charging the system can't add more amount to system.so before we charging the system we must know that system ampere for full load,otherwise system can be damage.
I have a '92 and it is Freon 12. There are a couple of ways to tell. 1. There is a sticker under the hood that will tell the type of freon and the amount. 2. The best way is to look at the freon input connection. Freon 12 is a 1/4" flare fitting and freon 134A is much larger. A freon 12 system can be converted to 134a with a kit that is very available. They make these kits because freon 12 is unavailable and is now illegal to sell.
