Perhaps not really specific to a 380, but maybe more general to all M/B's(?). I was attempting to recharge my A/C w/ R13r. The fiiting looked like it had the conversion done, but the Shraeder valve was very near the top of the fitting. The R13 r hose would fit over the fitting, but would depress the shraeder valve way before locking into place, thus releasing the charge that was in the compressor. And I couldn't push the hose fitting to actually make a positive connection to the low side of the copmpressor. My question is , does M/B have special A/C fittings that are generic to themselves only? I have a "grey market" 380 SL, and I know there are some differences, but would these be one of them? Yes, I was trying to recharge, as the A/C output leaves something to be desired Thanks in advance for your input!
