I need to recharge the A/C. I have the AWESOME 96 C220. I cannot find the charge port.

Please help! Pics help so use the engine pic I have in another post and simply circle where it should be.

Thanks.

Can someone take this picture and circle where the low or high port for the ac is? I am trying to charge the ac but can't find it.

Olay here you go. Looking at the engine from the driver's headlight here is the area to look (take note of the intake boot with the "104"

Here is the same angle but zoomed in. You can see the lowside port with the cap still attached.

Found it and did the charge thing but the center vent didn't open. Back to search function.

Thanks for the help

duo-valve may be stuck. Locate it and tap it a few times.
location - facing the engine, it's on the left side corner, very close to the firewall.

Gave the duo valve a few taps and center vents are open. a/c blows cool but not cold no significant difference.
