My S-10 has a leak at the compressor so I am going to replace it. I've also been told the accumulator needs to replaced as well since dirt can enter the system.
This is an R-134a system. I need to know if I need to have the entire system put under vacuum before I open it up? Or can I just have a shop suck out all the refrgerant?
Heck there may not be any left since it leaks so bad the compressor won't kick on.
While opened up what else should be replaced I'm guessing the fitting that mounts to the compressor has O rings???
I've never done an A/C repair before. But I want to try it and I want to do it right the first time. Any pointers are appreciated.
