babyfacefitz Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Went out and got a robinair vacuum pump, gauges from NAPA but forgot my schrader valves. Went to O'rielly b/c is close and they sold a package. It had four schrader valves , two big two small. I thought the low side had the smalls b/c the high side had a big one. NOPE, down the tube it went. Tried tweezers, vacuuming it out. Now is in there. I'm trying to get my expansion valve out so I can get the hose. I assume I need to get that part out. Is it fine to leave it in there? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babyfacefitz Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 Does the expansion valve need the rubber boot? My car is missing it. Would some neoprene tape work to absorb vibration or is a full dust cover OEM boot needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babyfacefitz Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 got the schrader valve out once I remove the expansion valve. I then could wiggle the hose and get that little beast out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Good work! I think that was a wise choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
