This is a new condenser and new hoses.

You see where the hose connects here to the Condenser I know I need to add 2 O-rings in those grooves. But should there a O-ring inside behind that spring. I didn't get to look at my old parts I through them away. I don't know how this connection seals up with only those 2 O-rings just slips into the hose then just held on by that spring. I have a complete O-ring kit and there is only 1 that's small enought to fit snugly in that groove but it doesn't feel tight when I slide the hose connection over the O-rings enough I feel will give it a seal. Seem the O ring should be thicker. But I guess it does seal??

No o-ring goes behind the spring. It will seal with just the two in front of it.
