    • Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil before installing them. Be sure to use the right O-rings for R-134a to avoid leakage.
    • Be careful not to damage the radiator and condenser fins when installing the condenser.
    • Charge the system, and test its performance.
