Air conditioning needs to be charged...

May 30, 2009 2 Replies

Hello all,



Our 1998 V90 Wagon is in dire need of an A/C recharge. Can anyone share with me which line I need to attach the canister to and where it is located? I have done this on other cars, but never on this one. I see, when I lift the hood, a long line with a cap on the left hand side in a very exposed and easy to reach spot. Is that the line? Or is it somewhere else.



It's getting warm here in the ATL so any help is appreciated.

You need to find the leak or it will just leak out again. Eventually the oil will leak out too and the compressor will seize.

Also if the system has become completely empty, air will have been drawn in and it has to be pumped down to a vacuum and the receiver/dryer replaced before you can charge it.
