Default Schrader Valve Location to recharge AC

I cant seem to find the loacation of the valve on my 2010 4 cyl Ranger. Any one know where it is? My AC is dead and Its joy living in Az this time of the year. Not sure if I put this in the right area but you can move it

I'm away from my truck this minute, but it's easy to find. There is a aluminum looking tube about 1/4" in diameter running on the left side of your engine.

There should be a cap on it much like a tire valve cap. It isn't way, way obvious, but it is reasonably easy to spot.

I'll shoot a pic when I get home.

If you're having fuel issues, go ahead and check your emergency cutoff switch behind the right side kick panel.

Mine activated last week for no reason and left me stranded for a moment. It started to rain, of course.

My truck had been running rough all day and after stopping, it wouldn't restart. Shoving the switch toward the front of the truck got me back on the road and no further issues so far.

Wait a minute. I just reread your question.

The valve to recharge is not a Schrader valve. If you want to recharge your AC, we are talking two different things.

I assumed you wanted to check your fuel pressure. Again, pic coming soon.
