Air Conditioning Question I didn't know where to place this?
If I take the system off the car,will I still have defrost and heat?
Looks like alot of weight saving <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Air Conditioning Question I'm wondering the same thing, but how we all thought it was 40 pounds was wrong, it all comes out to be 28 pounds.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Air Conditioning Question Its more than 40 lbs if you take out the evap and heater core plus blower and associated hardware under the dash... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
And no you won't have the drying action of the defroster without a funtioning A/C.

Re: Air Conditioning Question For the last two years that I owned my ’89 Formula it had no A/C and it was a daily driver. The windows will still defog with just the fan on, but it will take longer and won’t work as well. Heat still works all the same. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
FWIW...I haven’t bothered to recharge my A/C in the WS6 yet since the cam install. Maybe I will this summer and see if it holds. We’ll see how hot it gets.

Re: Air Conditioning Question Ryan its too late now, your seals are most likely shot, I waited one week and I got it re-charged, and It worked for a while then one hot summer day I go to crank it up and it was a no go.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
