REMOVAL
CAUTION: Replacement of the suction accumulator/drier is necessary any time a major component of the refrigerant system is replaced. Failure to
replace the suction accumulator/drier will expose the refrigerant system to excessive moisture accumulation. The suction accumulator/drier should also
be replaced if the suction accumulator/drier is perforated, if the refrigerant system has been opened to the atmosphere for other than a minor repair or
there is evidence of moisture in the system (internal corrosion of metal refrigerant lines or refrigerant oil is thick and dark).
NOTE: Compressor oil from vehicles equipped with an FS-10 A/C compressor may have a darker color while maintaining a normal oil viscosity.
