Dave - New compressor, new orifice tube, A/C accumulator, o-ring kit & valve kit green for R12, system evec and recharge with R12 system checked OK 7/30/2004. Did a short jump from the positive post in engine bay to see if compressor would kick in - it did. Did not leave run long enough to see if it would run cold air just a quick test. What am I missing - need more info on the switch on the accumulator bottle how do I jump there? Thanks to all!
