Re: 2007 Civic - Warm Air, New Parts, Good Pressures

JohnHere, since the ACPro can he used did have sealant after all, and he has replaced everything but the hoses and evap, what would your approach be? Replace hoses and evap? Sealer sets up and hardens after it's introduced into a system, and it can't be flushed out once it does. Not only can it clo...

Re: 2007 Civic - Warm Air, New Parts, Good Pressures

How did you arrive at that oil charge? ...The sticker under the hood states that amount by weight There was some confusion about measurement of refrigeration oil a couple of days ago in another topic. Oil specs are in fluid ounces or milliliters, not ounces of weight. That said, my references for y...

Re: 2007 Civic - Warm Air, New Parts, Good Pressures

I didn't pay attention that the AC pro had sealer in it....I saw the 'MAX SEAL' version and thought it was the one with sealer and the regular did not. That was a mistake. Doh! :? :roll: I guess that could have gummed up my evaporator core or lines? I flushed the core and the lines with a quart of a...

Re: 2007 Civic - Warm Air, New Parts, Good Pressures

The pressures look good to me, I added the proper amount of charge, and it was working almost to the factory target temperatures for a while. If it had a leak, I would expect the pressures to be out of range. The only items not replaced are the lines and the evaporator core. The lines weren't damage...

2007 Civic - Warm Air, New Parts, Good Pressures

This all started after I hit a racoon that bent in my condenser. A few weeks later my AC started blowing luke warm so I bought a can of AC pro thinking the condenser was slowly leaking. The can gauge showed 40 PSI which was the middle of the green so it should have been good. I went ahead and added ...
