The Shraeder valve cores should be available from Ford or most HVAC/R suppliers like Johnstone, here in the East. I work the commercial side of HVAC and the Schraeder valve cores tend to fail from the O ring leaking. There is a tool to replace the core without having to remove the refrigerant charge. I love neat tools.

I found the tools to replace the core but on my 95 f150 it has black rubber ***** in the valve on the high and low and can't get to the core is there a way of changing the core or does the whole valve need to be replaced
