COMPRESSOR SEALING WASHERS
^ When installing sealing washers, keep dirt and foreign material from getting on the sealing surfaces of the washers, hose block, or compressor ports. Clean all sealing surfaces with a lint-free rag.
^ Do not reuse sealing washer.
^ Sealing washers do not have to be oiled prior to assembly.

1. Install sealing washer onto pilots of suction/discharge block fitting. Washers must be seated against surface of the block fitting (figure 39).
2. Install hose block to the compressor making sure the sealing washers are seated within the compressor machined surfaces (figure 40).
3. Hold block in place, hand tighten attachment bolt.
^ Tighten bolt to 33 Nm (24 lbs. ft.).

IMPORTANT: If correct washers are used, there should be a 1.2-mm (0.047-inch) space between the suction/discharge hose block and the compressor rear head.
