Ya know that feeling that...I should replace both adapters..but only one is leaking.

Then you pull that good vacuum, and then fill it, and test it.

And then pull the fitting off of the adapter you didnt replace, and not it's leaking?


That's my today.

It's pretty much a guarantee that whatever seal or hose you did not change will leak.

Yup.

And I post this..as another lesson to everyone else. Cant have too many examples of this to search for.

Ive ordered up the rest of the parts I need to plumb in the rear AC now that I have the annoying leak resolved and things refreshed.

FWIW..those in the SF Bay Area..Ive now bought most of what ya need for a basic AC service..with a tank of 134a as well.

Ive learned a lot from a lots of folks..and have invested in it.
