Quick Freon Check
For those of you not sure if your A/C problems are due to low refrigerant, this is a quick, inexpensive way to check and move onto other things.
Auto parts stores sell a simple, hand-held guage for checking refrigerant level, and it runs about $13.
Well worth it - just unscrew the low pressure cap, press the guage onto the fitting, and read out refrigerant level.
