I need an AC line repaired, where to go?

[Stampede]

Trying to find a place to call, to see if it's cheaper to have the one line fixed then buying the manifold, with both lines, it's for an 2005 chevy equinox.

 

Thanks.

My labor guide shows about 2 hr each or 2.5 for both.

What type of repair ?

I need one of the rubber hoses replaced.

 

Thanks.

It depends what you mean by cheaper. Of course it will be cheaper now to do only one, but if the other becomes a problem later, you will be paying for the evac and recharge again. And probably some of the labor overlaps. Let me know if you want me to take a look at it.

I went to recharge the ac system. I only put in 12oz of A134, my pressure readings on the low side were 50psi, on the black numbers, 54 on the A134 blue numbers. On the high side, 125psi on the black, and 125 on the blue, and is was about 80 degs outside. What should be my target numbers? Note the system was empty when I started.

 

 

 

Thanks.

Not familiar with a134. I assume you mean R134a. I don't recharge by pressures. They very a lot with atmospheric conditions. I always evacuate and recharge with the correct weight of refrigerant shown on the manufacturer's tag.

[Stampede]

Do you know where the tag might be? I can't find it.

 

Thanks.

Not exactly. Usually strut tower, core support, or on the hood.

I found requirement, the funny part about that, the English version basically said take it to a qualified technician, the foreign version gave the requirement at the bottom.

 

 

 

Thanks.
