A/C refridgerant top-off question
In a previous post I asked about the compressor cycling on and off every second or so. I found out that this was due to low refridgerant levels. After talking to my mechanic he said to get a small R134a can and try "topping it off". I borrowed the hose that connects to the can from a friend. I read the directions and need to know which port is the "LOW PRESSURE " side of the system. Is it the one right next to the battery that is VERY easy to get to? (that would be NICE). If it isn't where is it located?
Thanks
Steve

WOW, I thought for sure there would be a reply when I got home. I guess everyone is still out fishing like I just was 
Guess I'll have to check back later and do the AC tommorow

It would be too easy and boring if the port you needed was the one sitting right out in the open 
That's the high side one.
The low side port is on the the accumulator/drier which is right at the firewall.
And no I wasn't out fishing...I was working on the stock car.

I saw the port on the accumulator/drier so that was my second guess. I figured that was the one since it would be WAY too easy if it was the one next to the battery. Thanks Racerguy!
