St.Pete,
Florida
Well after years of not having A/C in the car I decided its just too damn hot to not have it here in Florida and its not even summer yet "must be getting old" ,I went thru the whole car yesterday and changed every O-ring in the system seeing how some were from 1990. I didn't replace any parts this time around just wanted to see if how the system would work as is,Although I did replace the expansion valve and drier awhile ago so they are the newest parts on the car.Original compressor and condensor.
I vacuumed down the system for about 40 min then waited about 20 min to see if both sides held a vacuum and both were fine needles didn't move. Charged system,
Here's were the problem is.
at idle Low Side is at 30 High Side at 250-275
at 2000 rpm the LS= 20 HS=300 (slowly climbs up)
The car emptied 3 cans of freon. Which seems a little odd
the center vent temp doesn't go below 60 no matter what the fan speed is set at,its cool but definetly not cold enough.
I have read that when the LS is low and the HS is High there's a blockage in the system.Think I'm going to replace the condensor and see if that is the issue as its the original,also on the end there is some blue/green looking stuff on the coil.
What do you all think?
