Anyway that's the OS's first problem. Not having a high or low port in a A/C system is like car without a gas cap. It's a standard item.
MacTrader, if you're reading this check your A/C mounting again. I saw that compressor shift a little when it kicked in.

That is all good to find out.
If they let you return that thing then consider getting your money back and buying a modern sanden......

I sprayed the belt with belt dressing. ( Sticky gooey stuff ). The belt must have been slipping because now it just stalls the engine from a 1000 rpm fast idle. Just too much drag from the compressor.
Seems pretty clear now what I have to do to fix this.
Thanks Everyone
