Regassing AC 130 Tdi Diesel Engine

[ashbyrich]

:1zhelp: I have purchased one of those halfords regassing kits (134a).
However I can't find the low pressure valve on the 130 TDi Diesel Engine....I can see the compressor low down behind the radiator but can't work out where the low pressure side is..

Hi

I would not recommend using one of these "gas in a tin" kits, there could be a chance you could overfill the system, causing problems. Not sure how much these put in, but you are far better paying to have the system regassed on a AC machine.

This will remove all the existing gas, re-vaccum the sytem to remove the air, fill with the correct ammount of both R134, and PAG oil. At the same time you could get the pollon filter changed.

Just open the windows.

I am reaching this conclusion...that is not to use these "gas in a tin" solutions...

Many Thanks

Does the gas tins kits also come with the lube, and presurre gauge?
