Remove rear wheels, remove rear calipers there will be two ten or 13 mm bolts on the back,(DO NOT LOOSEN THE LITTLE BLEEDER NIPPLE WITH THE RUBBER CAP ON IT!) pry the calipers back and off the rotors ,remove the old pads and get a c-clamp or big channel lock pliers and squeeze the caliper pistons back into the bores until they stop, now if your rotors are badly scored or rusty this is the time to change them there will be one or two #3 phillips head screws holding each rotor, remove these( you may need an impact driver with a phillips bit and a hammer) pull off the old rotors and reinstall the new ones after cleaning the rust protection off of them with brake cleaner and cleaning the rust from the hub where they sit., pull the rubber boots back on the caliper slide pins and lube them with clear silicon grease till they move freely, now use black hi temp grease to lube where the pads sit on the brackets(after cleaning the brackets of rust and dirt) and lube the backs of the pads (not the friction side make sure these stay clean!!) now reassemble and enjoy you just saved yourself a couple hundred bucks from the shop !! -jeff

Since '92 Hondas come with R-12 there will be R-134a adapters on the high & Lo pressure fittings that go over the original Schrader valves hose fittings. These attach to the top of the original R-12 fittings so you should be able to see them installed over the originals. R-134 hoses won't fit R-12 fittings- this is the primary way that prevents folks from putting in the wrong types of freon.

Conversion kits come with stickers to put on the car indicating that it has been changed to R-134a so you can look for that IF whomever did the conversion followed through with putting them on. The best way to know for sure is to compare your fittings with R-12 & R-134a fittings to see which ones you have.

Evacuating the R-12 is easy, but it is a state jail felony in most jurisdictions unless you have a recycling system and a license to handle it.. R-12 is an expensive commodity and you should have no problem finding a facility that will evacuate your R-12 for free. No more R-12 is being made, it is hard to find & very expensive and will only get more so.

I would find an independent auto A/C guy or gal to do business with who will recycle the R-12 then flush, vaccuum & refill with 134a for free or minimal costs after you do the seals and kit, because R-12 is very hard to find, very expensive with lots of paperwork and must be bought in large amounts that are cost prohibitive even for an A/c shop. If someone wants to charge you for taking your R-12 just move on down the road to the next guy because they will likely rip you off on other things too. Find someone you can work with and have a rapport- the good ones will talk you through what you need to do to convert & will be happy to get your R-12 in return for those services. If you are in a large city there are probably several wholesalers who sell everything you need and will do the evacuation and refill for you for trade- provided you have enough R-12 remaining that is worth their efforts..

SOURCE: 2001 honda civic air conditioning

This is a simple fix, in fact, you can fix it for under a dollar if you've already got a soldering iron.

You need to unscrew the panel underneath your glovebox and then unscrew the blower motor mount/controller. Once it's unscrewed, take the controller circuitboard off. You'll see a thermistor on one end that needs to be replaced. You just solder a new resister (1ohm) to the other side of the board between the two solder points where it comes through the board for the original thermistor. If you're up for the work or know someone that can do it for you, let me know and I can write a tutorial and walk you through it. It's a simple fix and only takes about 20 minutes or so to do.

If you'd rather not do the work yourself, the part from honda is about $150.00. (US)

You can reach me at [email protected] or just reply to this post.

Location of charging valve on 2001 dodge durago. where to hook gages for adding freon

First this system doesn't use Freon, it uses R134, the charging valve is located in the larger of the two AC lines or on the Accumulator.

How do you put ac refer in

Do you mean to refill the air conditioning gas? I can't quite work out what you mean.

If so, you need a professional to refill with R134 gas. It costs around £30 or $50.

Vote for me, thanks.

You might be losing A/C R134. You can buy a test kit and new R134 at a parts and the tster will tell you how much R134 you have in your system and you can recharge it at the same time if you need it --Good Luck
