Not wanting to run the risk of hooking up to the wrong port, is it the larger port that sits directly on the smaller line on top of the compressor?
You have to quote the answers otherwise this thread becomes a mess....
My bad it's the other way around, the low pressure port/line is the cold one, high pressure is the hot one. That means the low pressure port is the one on the accumulator.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. Everything I read suggested the one on the accumulator but I wasn't sure.

Default 99 cherokee woes

Where do I find the instrument cluster fuse and or relay on a 99 Cherokee sport. I was flushing out the heater core and gotten water on the engine area and now my gauges and odometer do not work.

Thanks

I'm wondering when you take off the rear sway bar do you take it completely off or just unbolt it from the axle?

You take it completely off and then throw it away. It's worthless. I noticed very little difference without one and have been driving without one since 2002.
