Big silver Hose

[Cabral]

Ok well im working on taking out my OLD P/S Hose the main one ( Leaking )and well the only way really to get it off that i know of is to take this HUGE Silver Hose off, so i did, and while doing that LIKE A HIGH PRESSURE Air started flowing out so idk what i did wrong or if i did something wrong.someone take a look at my VID to show you what HOSE im talking about.and help me with what not to do.



Like :

If that high air pressure comes out. Can I drive it?or is it not safe?

Cause i need to get it to a shop and get my clutch in.thanks

thats your a/c hose that you took offnot your p/s an yes you can drive it like that justno more ac for you

[vancouverbc]

I still cant see the link but if you opened up the a/c system, close it up as soon as possible. you already let moisture and air in but you should minimize this. also , you dont want dirt inside the a/c system. you will have to have all the air and moisture vacuumed out by professional. and new gas. youll need a new filter too.

that is for your air conditioning.

I think it will cost quite a bit. You probably need new oil too. Dont try running the compressor. The best thing is to get it vacuumed asap because moisture will destroy the compressor. vacuuming means pumping out all air so you have a near perfect vacuum.

lol screw the atmosphere, a/c hose removal is ftl
