So glad to have been told about this forum! I hope one day I can answer a question for another member! I would like to know where are the low pressure AC filling connections on each of these cars! I know low pressure is the smaller hose,but have a little self-doubt. They both have original compressors. On the 91 740 Is it the screwed connection on the back of the canister that is on the left side adjacent to the coil?
May I refill Freon 12 into the canister with the little viewing window on the 85 240? Sincere thanks to All! Jeff

    Mine is a 1992 745 turbo. If by small hose you refer to diameter, then you have it reversed. The low side, from the accumulator to the compressor, is the larger diameter.
    The connector on the fender side of the aluminum accumulator/dryer is where the Freon is input. You seem to have that right.
    But, be very careful. Mistakes can be dangerous!
    You should use a gauge set and experienced advice.
