Well, the usual disappointment with my Car's AC performance. Made worse when my Dad drives up in his old Chevrolet 1ton truck and asks me to top him up with R-134-A. Half a can later, with the SAME suction and discharge pressures as the Wraith, his is ICE COLD. Not fair, I say... |

Hi Randy, Are your blend flaps and water tap working correctly and fully? Are you getting icing on any of the pipes in the engine bay? |

Blend flaps? Air always comes out the correct place. Coolant tap? Not working yet but it is closed and I have one of the hoses clamped. |
