Ford Repair: a/c fittings, washer hoses, car compressor


Question
2000 Ford Taurus I don't see the other a/c fitting I can see the one near the belt I don't remember if it was the high side or low I  followed all the other lines and looked near h block didn't put my car up on lift to check the compressor but I wouldn't think it was down under the the car compressor is on the bottom side of engine can you tell me where the other fitting is

Answer
Hello Lou,
   The low-pressure fitting you are looking for is hidden back underneath the pass. side plastic cowl covers, on the low-pressure tube right before it goes through the firewall. It is hard to see because of the black cap and the vacuum and washer hoses that sort of cover it up. On the DOHC models it is sort of hard to get to, but with the pushrod motor, it is easy.
    I hope this info helps you if it's not too late. I'm very sorry for taking so long, but I had a family emergency that kept me away from the computer. Good luck.
    Shaun.
