Subject:AC at last?

Excuse the cross posting.

My dual AC system that hasn't worked for over a year has now been
converted to R134 and I had a cold ride home this morning. However,
since this is northern New Mexico, that wasn't an adequate test. I
will head for Oklahoma over the weekend to see if it's really fixed.

The Subie compressor (which I was told needed replacing) was actually
OK and the expansion valve was blocked. It was replaced, the system
was vacuumed and flushed and R134 was added along with an additional 6
ounces of ester oil. Fingers crossed.
