A/C fitting torq spec
I just installed a new A/C system that uses O-Ring style fittings. How tight should the fittings be? I don't know of a specific torque spec to compare it to, of course you can't use a torque wrench but it would be nice to get an idea where to start. Would the spec be inch-pounds or in ft-pounds?
I used compressor oil to lube all fittings before assembly, at this point I just snugged all connections.
I won't agree or disagree on your opinion of comp cams, but when I put a new cam in the 350 in my 76 Vette I went with Howard's and have not been disappointed. With the junk coming out of China these...
