A/C Discharge Line - Description
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: 2.7L shown. Other engines similar.
The A/C discharge line (2) is the refrigerant line that carries refrigerant from the A/C compressor to the A/C condenser.
NOTE: Replacement of the refrigerant line O-ring seals and gaskets is required anytime a refrigerant line is disconnected. Failure to replace
the rubber O-ring seals and metal gaskets could result in a refrigerant system leak.
The A/C discharge line has no serviceable parts except for the metal gaskets (1) and rubber O-ring seals (3) used on the fittings. The O-ring seals are
made from a special type of rubber not affected by R-134a refrigerant. The O-ring seals and gaskets must be replaced whenever the A/C discharge line is
disconnected.
The A/C discharge line cannot be repaired and must be replaced if leaking or damaged.
