Quetion about Air Conditioner

supramacist · 04-27-2008, 04:09 PM

I was just saying r134a sucks. I know the r12 rocks.

They did all of this noise back in 98/99.
Everyone was supposed to convert to the 134a and somehow this never quite managed to happen.
And freon and ac's all across america have been dorked up ever sinse.

So we still have guys with piles of cold air blowing blackmarket freon.

I agree with you. 134a is not as cold in a old retrofit system. As far as black market freon. Welcome to America. If you got the bills its not illegal. Cross the border to Mexico and its in ample supply.

i put the r134a in mine, have no complaints about the cooling effect.... Usually its too cold ;(

You're cold blooded then.

R134a is at its worst when you're sitting in traffic and going no where.

That's my largest complaint. I still say delete that thing.

Removing the condensor opens up the radiator to more air flow. Anything you can do to prevent any type of over heating is a plus.

I hear ya though it's not a mod for the weak of heart cause the car does get hot. I just drive faster

Often enough mine blows frost at me lol o.o

but ill pick up a thermostat and check it out at idle....

Never idle'n in traffic... just isnt any out this way lol

Right on. It's all good.

Just curious if this is an across the board thing or if there is another reason why r134a is said not to work well retrofited into our cars

becuase my AC blows colder than my wifes 08 corolla

One thing i have noticed though i dont get enough air blowing out of certain vents and like when i switch to defrost it still blows out the same holes... lol

Enough gets redirected to do whats needed but i dont think it works quiet right
