Hi all,
Been quite a while since I actually logged in
I've (still) got my 2004 B2300.
Last week I found the AC isn't working
Had a look at things today, the AC clutch is cycling on and off, even on max cooling.
Tried adding refrigerant but not sure I'm using the correct port?
I can only find 2, large diameter drivers side front (in front of battery) and small one on top of receiver/dryer on passenger side (at least I think that's what it is?)
Is there a third port to add 'gas'?
Pressure varies between 90psi when clutch cuts out and 35psi while running
It's got about 90,000 miles (don't use it much since I got laid off)
It isn't too hot in Florida at present so living with it isn't much of an issue, but, summertime will be a problem
Any help will be much appreciated
Thanks
PJ
BTW, I tried search but only found 2 posts, neither of which seemed to apply
