Found out that I have a hole in my condenser a few weeks ago, and instead of paying an arm and a leg to have the dealership do it...I figured I'd attempt it myself. I've gotten as far as getting nearly everything out except the old condenser. I'm stuck at disconnecting the two AC lines that hook into the condenser. The DIY guide i'm using just says use a "special tool" to disconnect...what tool are they talking about? Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Found it...everythings back together. Was a $6 tool from AutoZone. Now time to recharge and see if my problems solved.

 

Is this the tool you used? Do you know if this will work on the other end of the line? By the firewall
