I have been looking to find the 3-gauge A/C manifold set that is shown in the service manual. No luck. I happened to pick up from eBay an original copy of the Master Tech Service Booklet Session Number 64-7 Air Conditioning. While reading it on page on page six there is one paragraph that describes the right-hand gauge as: “…the compressor inlet gauge. There is no passage between this gauge and the center manifold opening. That’s just a rod, not a tube, connecting the compressor inlet gauge to the manifold.” Since the service manual talks about the “new” manifold gauge or a “kit” to adapt the old gauge set, I had assumed that it was connected for some reason and may or may not have had a specific orifice hole or some such. Well, I am the fool
as it is just a convenient way to hang the third gauge! So, I am heading out to HF to buy two of their gauge sets. Now I must find some 134a hose end adaptors for the R12 Schroder valves, and I can test the compressor output and pressurize the system and see if there are any leaks. Before I drop it off for R12 charging. It pays to read.
