a/c question
you could be low on freon, or the new equiv, there is a pressure switch in the car, usually it will not let the car compressor engage, but I have seen it many times. Check this first, usually this is the cause.
If you follow the liquid line leaving the condenser, it runs past teh accululator, to the pressure switch, then bolts to the part right before the evaporator. There's an orifice tube in there that loves to get cram packed with metal when the compressor gets fried.
Mine was reading perfect pressure with no cooling going on either. I replaced the orifice and blew out the system as well as I could. Year later I had to remove the new compressor when the clutch went bad, pulled the orifice tube out to see if there was any metal I missed, but there were only a few flakes.
