its currently getting checked out by the guys over at pep boys. I'll find out soon if its got any leaks or what not.
a month ago i gave it a can of A/C compressor oil, and when i tried to put the R134a, the low pressure line didnt accept it and it all spewed out.
what im trying to avoid is an ugly cost for a condensor or some A/C part which can be installed with some simple manpower.
