AC fitting

The gauge I bought to recharge my AC doesn’t fit my truck it’s a 2000 F350. Do you have to get an older fitting?

I don't think so, my '99 uses the later fitting.

There are two ports, the large high pressure port and the smaller low pressure port. Every vehicle with R134A uses the same size ports. You're probably trying to put it on the high pressure port and you need to put it on the low.
