Four Seasons A/C Accumulator with Hose Assembly,A/C Refrigerant Suction Hose P/N:83015
Keep moisture and contaminants out of your air conditioning system with the Four Seasons A/C Accumulator with Hose Assembly (MPN 33097), also cataloged as an A/C Refrigerant Suction Hose. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1994-1998 Mercury Villager and 1994-1998 Nissan Quest — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details.
The accumulator/filter drier is intended to be replaced any time the system is opened for service, and doing so is commonly required to validate a compressor warranty. Backed by Four Seasons' decades of mobile A/C experience, this unit is built to help keep the system clean and dry.
What does this accumulator with hose assembly do?
It filters the A/C system by removing moisture and contaminants that flushing cannot clear, using an internal desiccant to absorb moisture. It also serves as the suction-side hose assembly.
Does it fit my vehicle?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1994-1998 Mercury Villager and 1994-1998 Nissan Quest. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the application for your specific vehicle.
Are any installation parts included?
Yes. The necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal are included to help make installation easier.
Why should I replace the accumulator when servicing the A/C?
Contaminants and moisture can't be removed by flushing, and an open system can saturate the desiccant within hours. Replacement is also commonly required to validate a compressor warranty.
How does the desiccant work?
A desiccant bag inside the unit absorbs moisture from the refrigerant. A leaking or open system can saturate the bag quickly, making a used drier ineffective, so a fresh unit is recommended.
