I need help refilling my refiderant/freon stuff for my A?C as it is beinging to not blow cold air anymore. I know how to refill it, BUT i cant find were the hell the low pressure insert is. I found the high pressure which is located at the very right top corner of the motor on a line. BUt i cant find the low pressure one ANYWHERE. its very agrivating. i spent 10 minutes just looking and see absolutly no where. its a stock 1997 mitsubishi gst with some mods, but nothing was done to the A/C
 
the low side fill port is litterally right down on the line at the compressor itself, which is located at the back of the block, under the intake manifold.:thumb:
 
I still cant find it man! this is so agrivating i looked and followed almos every line is it possible to see and touch?!
Can you explain to me where it is?
 
A little bit about A/C for you:

The air conditioning system is a sealed system. If you are low on freon, then you have a leak somewhere. I'd suggest that you put the UV dye in the system along with the freon so this way you can find out where the leak and replace what is bad. This way you are not wasting can after can of R134A.

Also DO NOT use the stuff with the stop leak in it. It works great to seal leaks, but it will also bond to anything in the system where oxygen has gotten into (it works by reacting with oxygen).. i.e. evaporator, compressor, ect and will cause more harm than good.

As far as location, you may have to go under the car and look since the compressor is kinda buried. AWDDarrell is correct, tho.
 
Thanks guys i found it, i do have a leak and im in the prosses of fixing it. thanks again
