A/C Leak

Did a search and didn't find what I was looking for...i guess

Anyways, A/C is leaking. I recharged the system last week due to no cold air. It worked fine when I tested it. A couple days later it's hot air again.

I noticed on the hard line (elbow) about one inch away from the condenser was very wet.

thoughts? I don't know anything about A/C systems so I'm learning. Can I just replace that line and then recharge the system?

 

purchase a new o-ring from where it looks to be leaking, auto parts stores should have generic A/C o rings available.

 

any special tools needed? tell me more.....:biggrin:

 

one bolt, i think 12mm, dont breath!

 

lol look for oily spots on the lines good sign of a leak

 

get the proper o-rings.. swing by my shop.. I have a kit with the rpoper o-rings for ac systems...

could be wet from condensation...

 

thanks guys....I would've taken a deep deep breath.

Nate, what time are you open until on Thursday?
