  4. J 42220 Universal 12V Leak Detection Lamp. See «Special Tools»(ref-299130-S24087807742008092200000) .
IMPORTANTFlushing with the ACR 2000 is not intended to remove metal from the A/C system.

Flushing is intended to remove the following

  1. Contaminated PAG oil
  2. Desiccant, following a desiccant bag failure
  3. Overcharge of PAG oil
  4. Refrigerant contamination
  1. Recover the refrigerant. Refer to «Refrigerant Recovery and Recharging»(ref-299130-S36373810622008092200000) .
  2. Remove the orifice tube. Refer to «Expansion (Orifice) Tube Replacement»(ref-299130-S32401318822008092200000) .
  3. Connect the A/C lines with the orifice tube removed.
  4. Remove the A/C compressor. Refer to «Compressor Replacement»(ref-299130-S02487172852008092200000) .
  5. Install J 45268-5 to the A/C discharge hose.
  6. Install J 45268-4 to the A/C suction hose.
  7. Forward flow refrigerant flushing is recommended for contaminated refrigerant or PAG oil. Perform the following procedure: IMPORTANT: The filter inside J 45268-1 is serviceable. Remove and discard the check valve from the filter. Service the filter with ACDelco P/N GF 470, before each flush. Connect J 45268-1 flush filter to the suction port of J 45268 -4 flush adapter. See «Special Tools»(ref-299130-S24087807742008092200000) . Install the blue hose from J 43600 to J 45268-1 flush filter adapter. See «Special Tools»(ref-299130-S24087807742008092200000) . Install the red hose from J 43600 to J 45268-5. See «Special Tools»(ref-299130-S24087807742008092200000) .
  8. Reverse flow refrigerant flushing is recommended for desiccant bag failure only. Perform the following procedure and replace the accumulator when the flush is complete: IMPORTANT: The filter inside J 45268-1 is serviceable. Remove and discard the check valve from the filter. Service the filter with ACDelco P/N GF 470, before each flush. Connect the J 45268-1 flush filter to the discharge port of the J 45268-5 flush adapter. Install the blue hose from J 43600 to J 45268-1 flush filter adapter. See «Special Tools»(ref-299130-S24087807742008092200000) . Install the red hose from J 43600 to the suction port of J 45268-4. See «Special Tools»(ref-299130-S24087807742008092200000) .
  9. Flush the A/C system. Follow the instructions supplied with the J 43600 . See «Special Tools»(ref-299130-S24087807742008092200000) .
  10. Remove J 45268-4 from the A/C suction hose.
  11. Remove J 45268-5 from the A/C discharge hose.
  12. Drain the PAG oil from the A/C Compressor. Rotate the compressor input shaft to assist in draining the PAG oil from the compressor.
  13. Add back the total system capacity of PAG oil to the A/C compressor. Refer to «Refrigerant System Capacities»(ref-299130-S19315200972008092200000) .
  14. Add one bottle of J 41447 directly to the A/C compressor. See «Special Tools»(ref-299130-S24087807742008092200000) .
  15. Install the A/C compressor. Refer to «Compressor Replacement»(ref-299130-S02487172852008092200000) .
  16. Inspect the orifice tube for debris. Clean or replace as needed.
  17. Install the orifice tube. Refer to «Expansion (Orifice) Tube Replacement»(ref-299130-S32401318822008092200000) .
  18. Evacuate and recharge the A/C system. Refer to «Refrigerant Recovery and Recharging»(ref-299130-S36373810622008092200000) .
  19. Leak test the fittings using the J 42220 . See «Special Tools»(ref-299130-S24087807742008092200000) .

Draining Procedure

  1. Before draining oil, position the compressor verdically (clutch facing upwards) and let it sit for 1 minute.
  2. Position the compressor horizontally, with the ports facind downward, rotate the clutch and shake the compressor in order to remove as much oil from the compressor as possible.
  3. Drain the oil from both the suction and discharge ports of the removed compressor into a clean, graduated container. Rotate the compressor shaft to assist in draining the compressor.
  4. Measure and record the amount of oil drained from the removed compressor. This measurement will be used during installation of the replacement compressor.
  5. Properly discard the used refrigerant oil.
