    40f is excellent. This system protects itself from freezing the evaporator. This isn't your father's car ac!

    After fifteen minutes or less you normally need to turn down the fan.

    The ac repair manual is 400 pages long. Here's a taste:

    Guess I was fortunate. Thank you again to everyone. The tools I bought will collect dust but maybe I’ll get to charge another vehicle before r134A is completely phased out. If someone needs a vacuum pump, gauge manifold, oil injector, message me. I’ll sell at 50% the original cost.
