That occurred to me but it seemed odd that a little twist of the bolt made
it smooth but then it stayed smooth as I backed it off to the original
position. I wonder if there is a good IP bench near here (I'm 30 mi north
of Raleigh NC). I didn't see much in the phone book.

Valves are overdue but only required minor tweeking last time I did them;
probably a good thing to try next. The car has about 240K miles on it.
SWMBO says seat makes her back hurt so this car doesn't get used much these
days.

If the R12 leaked out you need to replace all the o-rings anyway.
I'm satisfied with my conversion on the 300D -- flushed the
condenser, charged with PAG 46, and fully evacuated.
That latter is vitally important -- even a small amount of air will
greatly reduce the cooling capacity at low spe
25 psi is too low, it's low on charge, which means it has a leak
somewhere that needs to be fixed, then fully evacuated and properly
charged. If you keep dumping 134a in it, the water vapor getting in
will make enough hydrofluoric acid to eat the compressor.

How about when I bought my 240D, got 5 miles from the dealership and the

BTDT. Backed into a high curb and wrinkled the rear bumper cover of a
Toyota van I had sold on the way to deliver it to the new owner. I
ended up reducing the price by $300, but came very close to losing the
deal.
