Any kinks or sharp bends in the refrigerant plumb-
ing will reduce the capacity of the entire air condi-
tioning system. Kinks and sharp bends reduce the
flow of refrigerant in the system. A good rule for the
flexible hose refrigerant lines is to keep the radius of
all bends at least ten times the diameter of the hose.
In addition, the flexible hose refrigerant lines should
be routed so they are at least 80 millimeters (3
inches) from the exhaust manifold.
High pressures are produced in the refrigerant sys-
tem when the air conditioning compressor is operat-
ing. Extreme care must be exercised to make sure
that each of the refrigerant system connections is
pressure-tight and leak free. It is a good practice to
inspect all flexible hose refrigerant lines at least once
a year to make sure they are in good condition and
properly routed.
(1) Remove the tape or plugs from the suction line
block fitting and the manifold on the compressor.
Install the suction line block fitting to the manifold
on the compressor. Tighten the mounting bolt to 25.4
N´m (225 in. lbs.).
(2) Remove the tape or plugs from the refrigerant
line fittings on the evaporator outlet and the suction
line. Slide the suction line copnnection block over the
liquid line and evaporator stud. Tighten the retaining
nut to 28 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
(3) Connect the battery negative cable.
(4) Evacuate the refrigerant system. (Refer to 24 -

A/C EVAPORATOR
DESCRIPTION
The evaporator coil is located in the HVAC hous-
ing, under the instrument panel. The evaporator coil
is positioned in the HVAC housing so that all air that
enters the housing must pass over the fins of the
evaporator before it is distributed through the sys-
tem ducts and outlets. However, air passing over the
evaporator coil fins will only be conditioned when the
compressor is engaged and circulating refrigerant
through the evaporator coil tubes.
OPERATION
Refrigerant enters the evaporator from the orifice
tube as a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid. As
air flows over the fins of the evaporator, the humidity
in the air condenses on the fins, and the heat from
the air is absorbed by the refrigerant. Heat absorp-
tion causes the refrigerant to boil and vaporize. The
refrigerant becomes a low-pressure gas before it
leaves the evaporator.
The evaporator coil cannot be repaired and, if
faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
REMOVAL
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM BEFORE
ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING
COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT
DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. DISCONNECT AND ISO-
LATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE,
THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR THE AIRBAG SYS-
TEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE BEFORE PER-
FORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. THIS
IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG
SYSTEM. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENTAL
AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.

TIONS IN THE FRONT OF THIS SECTION BEFORE

OPERATION
OPERATION - 4.0L CCV SYSTEM
The CCV system performs the same function as a
conventional PCV system, but does not use a vacuum
controlled PCV valve.
The fixed orifice fitting meters the amount of
crankcase vapors drawn out of the engine.
When the engine is operating, fresh air enters the
engine and mixes with crankcase vapors. Engine vac-uum draws the vapor/air mixture through the fixed
orifice and into the intake manifold. The vapors are
then consumed during engine combustion.
OPERATION - 4.7L PCV SYSTEM
The PCV system operates by engine intake mani-
fold vacuum. Filtered air is routed into the crankcase
through the air cleaner hose and crankcase breath-
ers. The metered air, along with crankcase vapors,
are drawn through the PCV valve and into a passage
in the intake manifold. The PCV system manages
crankcase pressure and meters blow-by gases to the
intake system, reducing engine sludge formation.
The PCV valve contains a spring loaded plunger.
This plunger meters the amount of crankcase vapors
routed into the combustion chamber based on intake
manifold vacuum.
TYPICALPCV valves are shown in (Fig. 5), (Fig.
6) and (Fig. 7).
When the engine is not operating, or during an
engine pop-back, the spring forces the plunger back
against the seat (Fig. 5). This will prevent vapors
from flowing through the valve.
