It's officially hot weather season up here in MI, and i'm sick of not having a functioning Air Cond. system in my 1988 Mercury Topaz. There is a sticker under the hood saying that the system was serviced in 97' with some R12.
Well I decided i should try to find out what the problem may be, upon inspection I've found that the pump is cycling on and off, there is a marginal amount of freon pressure( I poked the low side schrader valve and heard a decent whoosh, but it didn't come out like it should ya know) so here we are 12 years later with r12 in the system and a functioning compressor, and blower but no cold air.
I'm thinking it's got a low charge and all i need to do is get it charged up(hooray ebay r12) and see where that goes.
I'm looking for any input or experiences you folks may have! Thanks-JT1
