I just bought an 85 lx hatchback, the ac blows moderately cool. Where is the low pressure check valve located? I want to add coolant and check pressure levels.

Asked by Toddbinlexsc Jun 27, 2007 at 08:00 AM about the 1985 Ford Mustang LX Coupe RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

There is a check valve located right at the ac compressor were the main hose moves back towards the fire wall. Is that the check and fill valve? This cars got miles on it but it has had an extensive service then sat for a while before I bought it. I think it is just low on 134a but want to be sure.

Not exactly sure where the valves are. You may want to get your hands on a Chilton or Haynes manual especially if you see yourself dealing with issues like this. It will have diagrams and instructions on how to do almost anything to your car.

I'm trying to fix the heater in my 1966 Ford Mustang, and I read in an answer on here concerning the switches for the heater "Also all 3 of those control levers are hooked to cables. Look under the dash and check to make sure those cables are connected and not broken. Sometimes they stiffen up and break." If one of these (the one reading "heat") were broken, would it stop the heater from starting even though all the other parts are working? And if so, what solution is there to reaffix the switch to its respective cable? 1 Answer
