• Q: How to Service and Repair the A/C Hose Compressor Manifold and Tube Assembly on 2006 Ford Taurus?

  A: The first procedure for compressor manifold and tube assembly servicing requires refrigerant recovery. Set the vehicle in NEUTRAL position on the hoist before you remove the 5 screws or 7 screws for the lower radiator air deflector. You must disconnect the compressor manifold and tube assembly fitting at the condenser while removing the nut together with throwing out the O-ring seal before tightening this fitting to 8 Nm (71 lb-in). Start by taking off the engine oil indicator before removing the 3 bolts securing the ignition coil and set the ignition coil apart. Reinstall this component by tightening it to 6 Nm (53 lb-in). Disconnect the spring-lock coupled compression manifold tubes from the suction accumulator through disassembly of the seals by eliminating the O-ring material. People should detach the pressure cutoff switch electrical connector before loosening the compressor manifold bolt to remove the compressor manifold and tube assembly which includes O-ring seal discarding. The installation process should start by undoing removal steps and replacing the seals with fresh O-ring pieces that received clean mineral oil lubrication before the application of correct PAG oil amounts for refrigerant system lubrication. A proper completion step includes evacuation then leak tests followed by refrigerant system charging.
