Here are my A/C symptoms (95 900S 166kmi Manual A/C):
-works off and on, but not really relative to speed
-when it works, it is cooler, but not ice cold
-driver's vent is cool, middle less so, pass. not really at all
-hissing from dash especially when turning the A/C on
-was having problems with puddles on the pass. floor before the A/C went out
-recharged A/C, helped for a couple days, but not really working at full capacity
-recharged again, holding the can upside-down, it was ICE COLD for 1 day, and now it just doesn't work
I'm very skeptical about that leak-fix stuff, so I just used straight r134a, should I try the leak sealer, or run from it?
The pressure in the system seems to stay about the same, but the ambient temp here fluctuates so much it's hard to tell.
There are MAD bubbles in the sightglass, even when blowing ice cold.
I hope I have included enough info, and will really appreciate the help. I'm fine without the A/C, but my girl just won't even ride with me :-(
