I'll check the drain, but I think I'm pretty much screwed for the summer.

Your probably going to be better off bringing it in to have the a/c serviced.
That is where I would look after having the system recharged if it still works like ----

I'm going to stick the thermo on my GF's Cavalier and see how cold that one is. I LOVE the AC in her car.

Re: Any air conditioning experts in here?
the prices of r12 have actually dropped a bit in the past year because everyone wants to be cheap and switch to r134. the supply is going up and the demand is going down .

<<<---me right now.I bypassed the heatercore. Now that ****** sits right around 40* at IDLE.
It is a bit cooler outside today, but I can tell it's blowing WAY colder than it was. Who needs a heatercore anyways? :1__________________
