[AT] Air conditioning problems In my parts getter...

Cecil,

Is it possible that the connector is already partially screwed down preventing you from full engagement?

I went to add freon to my Big Belarus this morning.  The high side 
connector would not connect.  No matter how hard I pushed on the 
connector it would not go on far enough to connect with the groove.   I 
had to replace the freon a couple of years ago when the tractor was 
split, but I don't remember having any problems. The connectors I use 
are the ones that attach then screw the knob at the end to depress the 
schrader valve and connect..
