Well, I am ready to spring for the gauge set. I work on 3 or 4 auto AC systems a year. I currently have an XJ with a leaky LP valve core, so I am going to be replacing that soon, and another with a leaky evaporator. I would appreciate input from those who own and use this equipment
I need a set with the vacuum port, possibly a kit that includes the pump. I also would like one that has spare parts readily available. I don't need a gauge that will stand up to daily use, but also don't like what I see in the Harbor Freight $49 set. I have read many AC posts here, many with pictures of the manifold set being used, but have found no discussion of what specific model was selected and why.
Please tell me the following:
- Manufacturer and model you are using
- Why you chose your specific set
- Where you bought it and why you chose that vendor
And please tell me, What is the purpose of the sight glass? :roll:
TIA
