Mustang V8-4.6L SC VIN Y (2004)
attaches directly to the A/C evaporator core outlet tube and the outlet tube attaches to the A/C manifold and tube.
After entering the inlet of the suction accumulator, the heavier oil-laden refrigerant contacts an internally mounted dome (which serves as an umbrella)
and drips down onto the bottom of the canister.
-
A small diameter oil bleed hole, in the bottom of the vapor return tube, allows the accumulated heavier liquid refrigerant and oil mixture to reenter
the compressor suction line at a controlled rate.
-
As the heavier mixture passes through the small diameter liquid bleed hole, it has a second chance to vaporize and recirculate through the A/C
compressor without causing compressor damage due to slugging.
-
A fine mesh screened filter fits tightly around the bottom of the vapor return tube to filter out refrigerant system contaminant particles.
-
A desiccant bag is mounted inside the canister to absorb any moisture which may be in the refrigerant system.
-
A fitting located on the top of the suction accumulator is used to attach the A/C cycling switch. A long-travel Schrader-type valve stem core is
installed in the fitting so that the A/C cycling switch can be removed without discharging the A/C system.
