Econoline 150 A/C Question

Just picked up an '89 Econoline Van for deliveries, and I need to take care of the A/C system.

Currently no gas in System, and I was hoping to run a vacuum on the system to check / fix leaks.

But, where are the service fittings and receiver / drier for the system. I see one between the Condensor and the compressor, but where would the other one be?

Also, My R-12 Hoses do not fit on the above fitting? Were there different sizes for hi and lo pressure lines, or do I need adapters?


Thanks,

Tom

The low side port is up under the cowl behind the hood, a bit to the passenger side of center. Pull the air cleaner and intake hoses to get to it.
Receiver/drier is on the pass. side aft of the battery.
