OldCadTech Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 They should be 45 torx, use a swivel with the torx bit an extension and you should be fine.

OldCadTech Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Let me verify, are you taking the small ones out of the compressor or the ones out of the engine block? The small ones are 30 or 35 Torx can't remember IF they are stripped out inside the bolt center, that's a whole different can of worms.....

dbc2065 Posted July 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Tech appreciate your reply my mistake didn't see two 13 mm for ac Rear support bracket. Problem solve was on ground replaced compressor suction hose,drier. Do far have working ac again. They were t40 torx after unit is remove for bracket swap out for new compressor. But need a question answer tech 2.25 pounds my a/c system hold's is that counting compressor oil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldCadTech Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Yes, That is the refrigerant charge amount. When the receiver drier and the compressor are replaced they should both be drained and the oil measured. That is the amount to be put back in. I wouldn't worry about it though. If it's cooling and the pressures are normal you should be good. Most compressors come with PAG oil in them.

dbc2065 Posted July 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Tech the once again hate to bother anyone but just to confirm basically did job myself including refrigerant r134 kept things simple. Yes,sir drier, suction hose, and compressor was change. My fill hose gauge was showing 47 in green area roughly 32 oz for 2.25 pounds everything seems good thus far my my temp gauge which stick in vent shows about 45 degrees set at 60 but when climate control is set at 65 notice temp gauge in vent goes higher like 75 could this be orfics tube wasn't change or climate control program box needs adjustment? Have no codes and so far no leak down from what can tell. Used 134 pay oil with dye. Hope my question is clear enough for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldCadTech Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 The outlet air temp (45) at 60 is good. The outlet air temp at 65 depends on outside air temp sunload etc.. What is the outside temp where you are? THERE IS ALWAYS ENOUGH TIME TO DO THE JOB RIGHT - THERE IS NEVER ENOUGH TIME TO DO THE JOB AGAIN !!!
