Ok so last year when we swapped out the KA's in my S14, like an idiot I discharged my A/C.

Now I'm getting around to charging it back up, and the O-Ring on my low-pressure hose at the compressor has gone bad. Is there any specific size that is needed, or should I just match it up at the parts store? I pulled it off and the rubber is in good shape, just flatened.

An oring is an oring as long as you know the inner and outer diameters. If you know the OD and ID, I'll send you a couple if you cover shipping..Or, take the lazy way out and just buy from the dealer for dirt cheap...

Go to autozone. A universal pack of o-rings for the ac system are around $2. A lot easier.

Picked up a ton of them (variety) that are close to the size that I need (tried to visually remember). Hopefully one of them will work.

are you recharging it yourself or are you taking it to a shop?

since you opened it up to air, you can't just buy a can from the parts store and charge it

you're going to need to replace the a/c drier, and you'll need to take the whole thing to a shop for vac/charge

btw, you might be screwed.
moisture (aka open air) + refrigerant = acid that destroys your a/c system
