Re: [DML] Re: Air Conditioning

["Lauren" <LPLand@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Maybe you all can give me  some advice about my A/C problems 
since this is such a "hot" topic (pun fully intended).

'Tis the season - we're facing 85 here and that means "hot" is just 
around the corner.  My A/C needs work but I wanted to have a better 
idea of what I might be facing before I take it somewhere.  

Here's the background.  When I bought the car last year and had it 
worked on the A/C really wasn't a priority so all EuroService did was 
to recharge with FR12 and tell me it wasn't really blowing very cold.  
His notes on the bill say:

Car has no a/c cooling.  Check and find no freon in system.  Trace 
leak to charging port schrader valve.  Replace valve core evacuate.  
Heald vacuum for 3 days.  Charge a/c with FR12.  Cold air from 
vents.   Vents in poor condition and air handling system in general 
needs attention.

I'm not anxious to take the car back to him, although for no 
particular reason other than he's frightfully expensive and slow, so I 
thought I'd take it somewhere else armed with whatever you all can 
guess at from my description.

Dave T especially,you seem to be a D guru and I value your intuition 
and opinion from my usual lurk mode.  

thanks guys...............LP
