Re: Air Cond Comp. (weekendwrench)
That is a great link! Thanks.
I work as a Commercial/Industrial A/C Technician and I often try to help people on the Forum with their systems. Everyone complains about how bad R-134a is but they aren't willing to do it right.This site has some great information on the proper way to retrofit R-134a and the so called drop in replacements.
This page: http://www.epa.gov/ozone/title6/609/retrguid.html
Should be required reading for anyone contemplating A/C work, whether they do it themselves or get it done.

Re: Air Cond Comp. (UCI1)
Thanks UC11 for the offer ,but I think mine is different, and to everyone elso for thier input,SUNCR a fellow forum member sent me an email on how to repair mine the instructions were great . So I'm going to try the repair and recharge my self, by the way most shops in my area wanted about $600. to do this job, I think it will cost me about $125. You guys on the forum are the greatest ,thanks for helping the old man out Jim.
