might just be low on refrigerant. most mechanic shops can test your system for leaks and fill it for you.

i wouldn't. you probably have a leak, so it would be best to get that fixed and then have it filled.

That sucks. Got the same issue on my truck so I've gotta change mine out. Luckily, I still have my A/C compressor off the F-body. Hopefully I can swap the 2 out.
