2004 Saturn Ion. I resealed the leaking compressor, added 2.5 oz oil, installed back on the car, vacuumed 2 hours after testing 15 minutes for decay, then charged to the 15 oz spec. Outside is about 82°F. Air blows ice cold.

After charging at idle.



5 minutes after shutting off.



Compressor.

And I did run a sniffer all around the compressor afterwards and got no hits.

Let's see the pressures with the engine at about 1,800 RPM, compressor engaged, radiator fan(s) roaring, blower on high, and doors/windows open for a maximum heat-load test. If all goes as expected, the HP will rise somewhat and the LP will stay about the same.

As for the static pressures, I'd give it about one hour or so for the system to stabilize. The high and low pressures should be roughly equal after that.

Great that you have ice-cold air. Have you checked the actual air temperature at one of the center vents?

Don't know why I get no notification of posts from this sites. Anyway, I'll check those when it gets a little warmer outside. I took the compressor apart to reseal it as the freon would leak out in a few days.

Works for me.

Nope, 3 hours later and nothing in my email, not even in spam. I see the number above the bell saying I have notifications, but I don't get them sent to me even though I have it set for that.



Tonight, I gave each of the girls a rock and a sucker. I had them walk down the road and back with the rock in their shoe and the sucker in their mouth. You should’ve heard the grumbling. They couldn’t walk normal because the rock was uncomfortable. They were limping and staggering just trying to get back to me.
We then came back inside and I asked them what was it like for them to walk around like that. The answers varied but most talked about how hard it was to walk around with the rock in their shoe. Nobody mentioned how sweet the sucker was in their mouth.
We often fail to realize God’s blessings because we put too much focus on the struggles of life.

I got this notice. So not sure what to say.

Looks perfect to me not the best AC man but that looks about right to me, especially for a Scion Ion

I could be wrong, but **********************************@email.com. Seems like a fake email account.

a typo?
should email.com be gmail.com
