Anyone work on A/C?

[mstng86]

It's been out since late last year, so no biggie. The elevated temps this week just gave me a little more motivation. Oh well, I will continue to sweat a bit on my way home in the evenings.

oh ok.

You definitely are a mans man.

Call auto parts exchange in Ft worth. They usually have a rebuilt compressor, dryer and orifice tube for less that $200. We have used them for years and the parts have always been good. 214-920-9200

Good to know. Thanks for the info.

You are a brave soul, I couldn't even make it without A/C in my race car (hangs head in shame!)

I don't know if Stutter Bob is available.

This sucks. The A/C going out at the worst possible time of the year.

That sucks Chili, hope you get it worked out. I have never had a car with A/C till a few weeks ago so I feel your pain.

Looks like the compressor is self destructing. Clogged orifice, and it immediately clogged the new one we stuck in for grins. Time for a compressor, dryer, and a hell of a douche.

Teflon is awesome, until it's not. Do they still offer the discharge lines with filters in them?

Grab some refrigerant with dye in it to find where the leak is.

Yep

If its too low on freon it will not cycle. You have to jump it I believe. Did you replace the main hose? There is only one big combo hose and its about 80 bucks at Oriely. Mine was leaking at the hose. It also made it cool better because it has filters and stuff in it. Did you clean all the leaves out of the bird cage area? That also made a difference on mine.

your more than welcome to bring it by after work and i can look at it, but im in crowley. just shoot me a pm.. btw no charge to figure it out

Just to give some additional info. This is on a 90 bronco that was converted to 134. It was working last year but did discharge freon a couple times. I believe it did that because the fan clutch was bad and the fan wasn't moving enough air (only happened when sitting still or moving very slowly). So I assumed pressure just built too much and vented. Compressor still worked fine, etc. so a couple of months ago, since I had replaced the fan clutch and all, I figured i would just need to re-charge it and would be fine. That is when I realized the Compressor was no longer cycling on and off. That's about all I know.

What time does he get home? I will swing by tonight if I can, has he done any diag at all on it?

That would be fucking awesome! He gets home right around 5:30.

oh it has a leak somewhere... that sucks... you might PM JOHN

Thanks-if DJ can't figure it out or fix it, I'll try him next.
