First off sorry I know this has been covered but I can't find details about where the low pressure port is on my car. I have seen several post from members with this problem but mostly everyone I seen has had a turbo car and mine is not. I can not find the port for the life of me someone please help.
 
You most likely have the Chrysler motor but I have a 4g63 non trubo....

my low side port is right at the AC compressor, and high is higher on the driver side near my power steering reservoir.

Look around, I'm assuming your car is R134a so the longer skinnier port looks like this, high side is shorter and fatter.

(also if you buy a R134a filler dispenser with PSI gauge it will only go onto the low side port, if you try to attach it onto the high side it wont go on...)

Thanks for the reply,I am almost positive its a chrysler motor. My high is near the strut by the timing belt. The only thing I see on the compressor resembling that just looks like the nut part of that piece. I am defenitly not a retard I just got done replacing the flexplate by myself so this is really frustrating.
I've taken it to a shop of one of my dads friends and he said he could find it either. I really need this to work I have a 1 year old daughter so I hope someone can help me please.
 
I have a 98 gs and i just looked to see and mine is right in front of the PS resivoir next to the coolant over flow resivoir. the 95 might be diff from later years but hope this helps and yeah my high side is up by the strut as well . Gl and hope you get it fixed. I can take a pic to show you if you need .

look at that nut again, maybe the head of the low side port broke/ripped off somehow? Follow your AC lines to your accumulator, your low side "might" be attached to is like this one...

I didn't see anything by the ps resvoir. The nut doesn't look like anythings broke off I took the nut off and it looked like a place to oil the compressor or something. Also traced the lines to the piece u showed but I didn't see the hookup there,. Thanks for ## help guys I appreciate it

I found it, it was covered by some rubber tubbing. The previous owner I guess broke off the end. It is really really easy to get to but I just have to replace that low pressure line now. Thanks for the help guys.
 
just curious where was it located on your car? just so i can remeber in the future if someone asks that has a 95 n/t Gl and happy tuning
 
It was very obvious once I uncovered the tubing around the hose. It was located about four inches towards the front of the car from the high pressure nozzle on the strut tower. Once I seen it was broken it was very easy to get to so I'm lucky but I wish I could find the hose to replace it no one seems to carry it.
