  post locked   How to properly flush A/C  

1991

Honda

Accord

2.2l

174,000 miles

I bought a can of aerosol ac flush how will I flush the system? Will I have to remove every component? Should I flush the evaporator? As for the condenser can I flush through the line that goes from the ac compressor and then out of the line that goes to the accumulator? Please help this is my first ac flush.

Im going to replace the accumulator and all o-rings. Then I was hoping to flush out all oil and refill, so I know how much is in there. I can get the vacuum pump and gauges to refill afterwards.

I read that and I know I don't have much ac experience, but my auto teacher is going to help me. I only bought the aerosol can because that is what I got recomended from my local ac shop. He told me that if he used his machine he would have to do everything. And I like to lean new things.

A/C repair is not OJT.

This thread is closed now.
