NOTE: Replacement of the heater inlet tube will be
required if the hose ends are cut for removal.
(4) If necessary, carefully cut the hose end and
peel the hose off of the tube.
(5) Remove the two heater inlet tube retaining
bolts and remove the inlet tube.

and slide each clamp away from the end of the hose
being installed.
CAUTION:
DO NOT apply excessive pressure on heater tubes
or connections when install the heater inlet hose.
Excessive pressure may damage or deform the
heater tubes or connections, causing an engine
coolant leak.
(3) Install each hose by carefully twisting the hose
back and forth while gently pushing it onto the tube
end.
(4) Using spring tension clamp pliers, compress
and slide the clamps onto each end of the hose being
installed.
(5) Refill the engine cooling system (Refer to 7 -
COOLING - STANDARD PROCEDURE - COOLING
SYSTEM REFILL).

REMOVAL
WARNING: Refer to the applicable warnings and
cautions for this system before performing the fol-
lowing operation (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR
CONDITIONING/PLUMBING - WARNINGS) and (Refer
to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING -
CAUTIONS). Failure to follow the warnings and cau-
tions could result in possible personal injury or
death.
NOTE: The heater return tube is constructed from
formed steel tubing and rubber hoses. Depending
on application, the ends are secured to the heater
core, engine oil cooler or the engine by spring ten-
sion clamps.
(1) Drain the engine cooling system (Refer to 7 -
COOLING - STANDARD PROCEDURE - COOLING
SYSTEM DRAIN).

and slide the clamps off of each end of the heater
return hose. (Fig. 22).
CAUTION: DO NOT apply excessive pressure on
heater tubes or connections when removing heater
hoses. Excessive pressure may damage or deform
the tubes/heater core, causing an engine coolant
leak.
(3) Disconnect each hose end by carefully twisting
the hose back and forth on the tube, while gently
pulling it away from the end of the tube.
NOTE: Replacement of the heater return hose will
be required if the hose ends are cut for removal.
(4) If necessary, carefully cut the hose end and
peel the hose off of the tube.

RECEIVER / DRIER
DESCRIPTION
The receiver/drier stores unnecessary refrigerant,
filters the refrigerant, helps remove moisture from
the refrigerant and retains any refrigerant vapor
that may leave the A/C condenser until it becomes a
liquid. The receiver/drier is installed on the high-side
of the A/C system between the front and rear sec-
tions of the A/C liquid line (Fig. 27). The receiver/
drier can be serviced by removing the air cleaner
housing.
OPERATION
The receiver/drier performs a filtering action to
prevent foreign material in the refrigerant from con-
taminating the A/C expansion valve. Refrigerant
enters the receiver/drier as a high-pressure, low tem-
perature liquid. Desiccant inside the receiver/drier
absorbs any moisture which may have entered and
become trapped within the refrigerant system. In
addition, during periods of high demand operation of
the A/C system, the receiver/drier acts as a reservoir
to store surplus refrigerant.
The receiver/drier cannot be repaired. If the receiv-
er/drier is faulty or damaged, or if the refrigerant
system has been contaminated or left open to the
atmosphere for an indeterminable period or if the
A/C compressor has failed, it must be replaced.
