Sanden compressor plug leak

Post by msrichmond »

What size O-ring should be used on an oil filler plug? My local shop tech says there is a leak there.

Once the refrigerant has been recovered, simply unscrew the plug and match up with a new green NBR O-ring. O-ring seal plugs and fittings should not be overtightened.
