WTF is up with my A/C????
OK..... So the A/C works great for an hour or two (varies) and then just about stops blowing???? No matter what fan setting air just barely moves out of the vent. I will turn it off for a few and it will work great and then problem repeat itself..... I never have checked under the hood to see if anything is frozen up because I hate stopping on trips but I will do that next time....
Any ideas though???

You have a small vacuum leak allowing the air box doors to drift. Until you have a chance to go looking, try cycling the A/C control to get the doors back to the correct positions. Same thing happens to me with my S-10.

I just had another thought....have you checked that your evaporator drain line is clear? You may be iceing up, which would explain why it takes a couple hours to start working again.

Thanks!!
I will check it next time it does it. The car is not my DD so I usually just use it on weekends when I go out of town and then I don't wanna pull over to check under the hood. And when I play at the strip no A/C so I really haven't looked into it much.....

You probably want to check before then. If that is what's happening, all that water is just sitting in the box. Mold, mildew and stench are soon to follow.
