1. Install the A/C pressure test adapter on the rear head of the A/C compressor using the existing manifold bolt.
2. Connect the high and low pressure lines of manifold gauge set or a refrigerant recovery/recycling station such as the R-134a A/C service Center to the corresponding fittings on the A/C pressure test adapter.
3. Attach the center hose of the manifold gauge set to a refrigerant container standing in an upright position.
4. Hand-rotate the compressor shaft 10 complete revolutions to distribute the oil inside the A/C compressor.
5. Open the low pressure gauge valve, the high pressure gauge valve on the refrigerant container to allow the refrigerant vapor to flow into the A/C compressor.
6. Using the Refrigerant Leak Detector check for leak at the compressor shaft seal and the compressor center seal.
7. If shaft seal leak is found, install a new shaft seal.
8. When the leak test is complete, recover the refrigerant. (See DISCHARGING AND RECOVERY.)
