I just wanted to say that you appear to have the high side and low side mixed. High side is the narrow pipe and carries liquid. The low side is after liquid converts to gas and it is from evaporator to the compressor. Without fully understanding how aircondition works, your chances for every learning to help yourself in this area is zero. Not to critisiz you but I am myself having some troubles with my clutch not engaging. As I look for solutions on line I am finding that most poeple are just talking without understanding. For example many think that the presure swith on the accumulator/dryer is the low presure switch but they are wrong. Please take a moment and learn the theroy behind airconditioning and try to fully understand the diagram. I have changed my high presure switch but clutch is not engaging. My mechanic is saying your new advance auto parts switch is bad so I ma getting one from the dealer to see if that would solve my problem. I wish to solve this problem before snow is on the ground.
on the reversed lines, nope. I had just used the same gauges on my other vehicle and hooked them up the same way.
I have the new (farking Chinese) accumulator and line with orifice tube just have not gotten them on there yet... new job etc....
