i dont know how the kit works. but with the AC machine you'd evac, vacuum for 15 minutes to get rid of moisture and to check for leaks. inject oil, and recharge

it depends wat kit u have. if youve got a kit from advance or auto zone its pretty simple. just hook the fitting to your low side an fill it up until the gauge says its full. make sure the cars running with teh ac on full blast.

1. turn your car on run A/C on full blast.
2. Unscrew back A/C recharge valve (not sure where it is on an integra, but i think back left)
3. screw in your bottle, and turn it upside down and shake it lightly while holding it upside down for about fifteen minutes, or until gauge says full.
-there is a front a/c valve that may need bled first, unless yours was leaking, try and get a a/c refill with seal fix, and o-ring lube.
