Description

Keep your A/C system clean and dry with the Four Seasons A/C Accumulator (MPN 33160). It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1990 Ford Cougar, the 1989-1993 Ford Thunderbird, and the 1989-1990 Mercury Cougar — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level details.

The accumulator/filter drier works as a filter, removing moisture and contaminants from the air conditioning system — debris that flushing cannot clear, which is why replacing the accumulator/filter drier is essential during service.

Moisture absorption: A built-in desiccant bag absorbs moisture from the system; a leaking or "open" system can saturate the bag within a few hours, leaving the unit ineffective.
Durable, leak-free build: Quality welds and high-quality desiccant are used for reliable absorption and a leak-resistant design.
Ready to install: The necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal are included for easier installation.
Backed by experience: Produced in an ISO/TS16949 & ISO14001 certified facility, drawing on over 50 years of mobile A/C know-how.

Replacement of the accumulator/filter drier is required to validate compressor warranty and should be done anytime the system is serviced.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this accumulator do?

It acts as a filter/drier, removing moisture and contaminants from the A/C system that flushing cannot clear, using an internal desiccant bag to absorb moisture.

Does it come with the seals I need?

Yes. The necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal are included for easier installation.

Which vehicles does MPN 33160 fit?

The 1990 Ford Cougar, 1989-1993 Ford Thunderbird, and 1989-1990 Mercury Cougar. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm fitment for your vehicle.

Do I have to replace it when servicing the A/C?

Four Seasons states replacement is required to validate compressor warranty and that it must be replaced anytime the system is serviced.

Why can't I just flush the old one?

Contaminants held by the accumulator/filter drier cannot be removed by flushing, so replacing the unit is essential when the system is opened or serviced.
