Well I know where it is leaking from the compresser their is dye all of the place down their. So where do I go from here? I know the junk yard has compresser'* for like $70 the well actual baker auto parts. New it is $500. I think I will also replace the evaptor core which is $250 and the low side value looks to be bad. Right now I am leaning to leave it alone maybe spend money on other things maybe k&n convertion or upgrades for my computer I very open to suggestion on which I should do.

I thought I would give you update and had my system inspected it turns on the fitting at the compression had was leaking and converted is only suppose to put about 60 f so mine is doning abotu 57 so that is right were is suppose to be. Yeah I am glad. NOw the only thing left for me to fix on this from when I got are rear driver side window makes nose when all the way down or up, passenger rear side handle need to repalced, trunk popoer doesn't work switch is bad , high beams don't work another switch that is dead in this dash, watch power steering fluid that is seeping hasn't gotten worst might just leave it alone until it get worst, replace passenger side head light(hole in it), fog lamps(then just need the inside cleaned), rear driver side stop lamp has small hole in it. That is what is left for me to do. What I have done is replace both engine pan gasket,tranny gasket, becuase of leaks, intake gasket another leak, rewire horn, audio system all wiring need to replaced, leak in vacum system at hvac control hose at top of engine, blower motor, fixed tranny leak. and that general maintance stuff(o2,fuel filter,plugs and wires,battery,oil duh,tranny fuild change , coolant, t-stat, battery, tb cleaned) . So this machine has come a long way from when I got her 7 months ago and runs now better then ever.

Yeah it pretty much drives one to. I have spent $887.79 in parts and fulids including oil on the car. The rewiring of the sound system took the longest time I spent almost 2hrs triing to figure were last guy did wrong and got sick of because the wiring spliced in some many spots.that dicide to put new wiring in. But the price of not have my car catch on fire priceless. I am going to have to post some pics of her

Sorry I was thinking how would it to be to put a/c compresser from a car that by default has r134a. Would I have to replace anything other that from what a read that r134a requies more compression then r-12 hence the reason that my system does run as cold. And could take a compresser from like 94 or 95 would it mount were mine original was.
