This A/C thread prompts me to ask for your advice also. My Javelin's A/C worked perfectly for about 5 years after I bought it (Florida car). It would absolutely freeze you out until the summer before last when it stopped putting out cold air. I presume it leaked out. Here in northern Illinois it's not a big deal to not have A/C, but I would like it working for future resale. I know nothing about A/C and figured if I got into it or took it somewhere it would need to be converted to a new system for big bucks. Not willing to spend big bucks it has been left alone. Bruce's comment about HC12a is interesting. I've got a local guy who's worked on older cars for years. If he checked it for leaks and stopped it, would it then just be a simple recharge and I'm good? Or is it likely the compressor or something expensive considering the age of the system?
