Most of the time we just post our problems to the board so I thought I'd share a nice refreshing success story. I bought my '81 about 2 months ago and it was completely devoid of any refrigerant for who knows how long (PO lived in Ohio). I finally got the courage to drive it across town to get the A/C pressure tested to see what parts I needed to order. Much to my delight and surprise, it held a charge on the first try and blows icy cold. The R12 was pricey but not having to monkey with anything else was worth it, and this ought to last for a long time. Makes for a completely different driving experience in AZ. Now I can start making good on my promises of giving rides. -John #5572 To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
