I have removed my A/C compressor and don't want to remove all the lines etc. Trying to find some screw on caps to close the lines so they don't get filled with crap. Looking for a quick and dirty fix for the weak/lazy mechanic. Any other recommendations I should do to keep the rest of the system intact? Thanks
Your hose fitting pic? Perhaps is like mine with #8 and #10 port covers when new hose is delivered as sealed?
Cut some fingers off rubber gloves and stretch them over the hose end fittings and then hold in place/seal with electrical tape Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat

I did this exact same thing. Got tired of moving compressor every belt change. I also removed condenser to improve cooling. On the compressor side, I just used Silicone caps. On the condenser side, I got fancier and used the correct thread size bolts. Basically you are looking for a short bolt with a hollow center. I have calipers and a thread gage, so it was easy for me to find the right bolt. I know one was 3/4-16, but not sure of the other off the top of my head. I think for the other bolt, I had one that matched the threads but was a standard bolt, so I just drilled it out. https://www.mcmaster.com/catalog/129/100/50925K417 https://www.mcmaster.com/products/caps/high-temperature-round-caps/?s=silicone+cap Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Hey old man. How the hell are you. It's been a long time. Florida seems to be treating you well. Think a lot about those early C&C days. Some of my best memories ever.
Appears you need 3/4" and 5/8" block off https://www.zoro.com/sur-r-auto-parts-34-ac-comp-block-off-1-srrac34cb/i/G702577678/?recommended=true https://www.zoro.com/sur-r-auto-parts-58-ac-comp-block-off-1-srrac58cb/i/G102577636/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=surfaces&utm_campaign=shopping%20feed&utm_content=free%20google%20shopping%20clicks&campaignid=19725515173&productid=G102577636&gclid=Cj0KCQjwxuCnBhDLARIsAB-cq1o7VkN9w4CQoyjr2Ha7diHcTufkzq368J1VcF83EHbuzTfSLqJ9FvMaAkZgEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
