MALIBU 79 Malibu ac HELP

[michaelf101]

I’m stuck. Does anyone know where I can find the conversion r12 to r134 fitting for the high side/liquid line on the left in my photo. I got the one for the low side. I’ve looked everywhere online and I cant find people with this ac setup. I have the new r4 compressor with the high pressure switch on the back of it. I’m in Washington and my state sucks for anything ac related at the part stores.

NAPA sells the fittings individually. I just bought the low side yesterday.

Did you have an issue getting that Schrader valve out? Mines stuck.

Yeah it’s weird my high side is actually smaller and this went on the other nipple.

No. It was a new accumulator. You usually need a long core removal tool to reach them.

Also check rock auto. If you cant find. I might have some in tool box in miscellaneous drawer. I did several of these conversions for the 80's early 90's cars. Walmart used to sell the kit about $35.00. Not sure if they still carry the kit.

In the conversion you don't need to remove the high side Schrader. The new r134 adapter just screws down on top of it.
