A new compressor is not an expense I need right now.

How do you know you need a new compressor???

What's the gauge reading???

I didn't reattach the gauge to find out. Now I'm about 700 miles away with my son taking a mini vacation. I'll check when I get back next week.

Because that would be just my luck.

Because that would be just my luck.

I got everything for under 300.00 bought the compressor and dryer with oil from buyautoparts.com for 217.80,and the line with the orifice tube at auto zone for 42.99, they also loaned me the gauges to recharge it, also got flush kit from them, did it myself and works great, Monte

A/C issues are a bummer. Been there, got t-shirt. I think my compressor is on its way out too. Good luck and enjoy the vacation.

We had that last year. From Reno to Yellowstone and back with no A/C. Bring some earplugs because the miles get loud with the window open! Mine required a TIPM reflash and all has been good since. The rest of the system was fine. Not sure what caused the TIPM to become unhappy but it's ok now.

We're now at Glacier and the fan won't go! Read all about it in another thread. :-(
