Follow the AC lines and look for a plastic cap. There are 2, The big one is the high side and the smaller one is the low side. Unscrew cap to add freon.

1998 buick skylark freon hose wont fit

You don't add refrigerant to the compressor . You add it to the low side suction line , not high side . Your best bet ,take it to a qualified repair shop.

You can't not discharge freon into the air, against the law, you need a mechine to evacuate and vac the system, you can go to a garage and have them lok at the A/c system for around $50 includes 1 lb. freon, they will let you know what is wrong.

Where is the low ac suction side located on a 1992 buick regal

First find the A/C compressor, it is attached directly to the engine and has a pulley on it. When you turn on/off the A/C while the engine is running you should be able to locate it by listening for it to engage.

When you find it you need to trace the two metal pipes that come out of it. One pipe is the high pressure side and one is the low. You will know which one is the low side when you find the 'tee' with a plastic cap (both high and low have one).

The fitting that comes with the A/C recharge kit will only fit properly on the low pressure port. Sometimes, but not always the low pressure port has a blue cap.
