Four Seasons A/C Accumulator P/N:33181
Keep moisture and debris out of your air conditioning system with the Four Seasons A/C Accumulator, P/N 33177. Positioned on the low (suction) side, the accumulator/filter drier stores refrigerant and pulls moisture and contaminants out of the loop — the kind of debris a system flush can't remove — helping protect the compressor. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1986 Buick Century, 1986-1988 Buick Electra, 1986-1988 Buick LeSabre, 1984-1987 Chevrolet Corvette, 1986-1988 Oldsmobile 98, 1986-1988 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser, 1986-1988 Oldsmobile Delta 88, and 1987-1988 Pontiac Bonneville; see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine-level fitment.
Backed by over 50 years of mobile A/C experience from Four Seasons, this unit is designed for long-lasting performance. Replacing the accumulator/filter drier anytime the system is opened or serviced is essential — and is required to validate compressor warranty coverage.
What does the A/C accumulator do?
It sits on the low (suction) side and acts as a filter drier, storing refrigerant and removing moisture and contaminants from the air conditioning system to help protect the compressor.
Does this accumulator come with seals?
Yes. Per Four Seasons, the necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal are included for installation.
Do I need to replace the accumulator when servicing the A/C?
Four Seasons states the accumulator/filter drier must be replaced anytime the system is serviced, and replacement is required to validate compressor warranty.
Why can't I just flush the system instead?
Flushing cannot remove the moisture and contaminants the accumulator/filter drier captures, so replacing the unit is essential when the system is opened.
Will this fit my vehicle?
It's a direct-fit replacement for applications such as the 1984-1987 Chevrolet Corvette and 1986-1988 Buick LeSabre. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact year, make and model.
