Would like some input in rather to put aftermarket air in my lark or to rebuild the one i already have. what i can tell about mine is the compressor is locked up, but appears to be all there. Will the factory air blow cold enough as i am in South Texas and it gets hot. Thanks in advance
If you ask me the old one's work better then anything. I just happen to have 2 for sale I listed today on this board.
Buy one of his used ones or rebuild yours. There is a good place in Texas that does them. Old Air Prodcuts I think is their name. Worked for me.
Yes, if your car has original A/C, rebuild it. I rebuilt the A/C in my '63 Riv and it really cools. (Drove it to Flagstaff a couple of summers ago.) I used R-12. I like how it works. Prices for R-12 have come down a lot lately. Demand is way down and supply is still there. If you carefully rebuild the system you will not lose a lot of R-12, and what you lose you can replace for not much cost. I had Old Air Products up in Ft Worth rebuild several of my components.
I want to thank everybody for their responces. it was very helpful. i reckon i will start with the compressor and go from there.
