• Q: How to replace the A/C Accumulator in an air conditioning system on 2003 Chevrolet Tracker?

  A: The replacement of the A/C accumulator requires vehicle elevation while recovering the refrigerant then supporting the vehicle appropriately before cap removal at the accumulator bottom. Begin by removing the accumulator bottom cap before proceeding to remove its filter and accumulator. When installing new condenser accumulators users should face the double layer section downward in the accumulator while adding 40 ml (1.3 FL oz) of refrigeration oil into the system. Secondly place the filter and cap on the accumulator while tightening the accumulator cap to 13 N.m (10 lb ft). Perform vehicle lowering while conducting an evacuation and charging of the air conditioning system. During the last stage test the A/C system while searching for any leaking refrigerant.
