5. Insert a protector (such as cardboard) between the condenser and the radiator.





6. Remove the condenser as shown in the figure.
7. Install in the reverse order of removal. Apply clean compressor oil to the O-rings before connecting the fittings. Do not apply compressor oil to the fitting nuts. When installing a new condenser, add 15 ml {1 5 cc, 0.5 fl oz} of compressor oil through the high-pressure side of the condenser.
