all i need to know is exactly where to put it in at. i see two fittings on upper line along the right inner fender. one big, that the hose fitting will not fit. one small, that the hose fitting will fit. they are both on the same line i think. whats with that. the larger line is on the bottem with no fittings on it. i also have a problem with flickering lights at nite. they just get a little dim then brighten up back and forth . its like a bad ground or something. the guy i bought the car off of put a brand new factory delco battery in it under the back seat. i want to know whether there is a ground somewhere back there or on the motor somewhere that could be loose>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>thanks rich

Not to be a wise-guy, but since the hose only fits on one of the fittings, I'll give you one guess which fitting to put it on.... You'll want to start the car and put the A/C as far down(temp) as it goes and crank the vents with all the windows down. Let it warm up like this for about 5-10 mins and attach the recharge kit and open the valve. Shake the can some while your adding it and always keep the can upright. My advice is to get a recharge kit with a pressure guage on it. This way you can at least know the low pressure side pressures. If you start to see it go too high, you don't want to add more.

As for the flickering, I seem to remember some old threads regarding some flickering. Maybe something w/ the sentinel or something but don't quite remember...just do a forum search.
