Well, the AC saga continues. I had to have the manifold hoses rebuilt, installed them yesterday. Pulled a vacuum for 2 hours, then let it it sit all night and day till this evening, still holding vacuum at same level. Put a little 134 in it, sniffer did not see any leaks. Fully charged and it worked of course. Will see how long it holds. Before it leaked out overnight. That was when I found the leak in the front compressor seal. Or so I though. Replaced the compressor, same leak. Thats when I found the pinhole in the hose, right by the compressor. The other compressor probably was not leaking at all.
I also noticed that after a while of running, the heater valve opens back up unless you have the dial all the way to min. Anybody know anything about these 201 climate controls? Wonder if its a sensor somewhere or the control unit. I also dont seem to get much air out of the side vents but do out the center just fine. -- Kaleb C.
