No, if you are losing refrigerant you will soon not have any A/C. Also the EPA states that this is hazardous to the environment. There are many products that you can purchase from UV to find the leak to products that have sealers in them. Its best to get the leak taking care of as soon as possible, depending on how old your compressor is it can burn it up and that is very costly to replace. You can find more helpful tips on the website link below.
Yes but fix the leak or worse problems can happen
Check the following............... 1. Freon system level. 2. Pressure switch. 3. Clutch wire harness. 4. If above are okay then scan the vehicles computer.
Yes and no. It is okay to blame BP for the parts of the oil leak that they were actually responsible for. It is not okay to blame BP for the entire fault of the oil spill, where other people were responsible. Each party involved should share their appropriate share of the responsibility and blame.
Okay, a fuel leak can occur at any point in the fuel lines, which on an olds are probably alluminum pipes from the tank to the firewall, at which point they turn to a rubber hose to the injectors or carbeuretor. (You have injectors). If you want to find it yourself, grab a few rags, some flour, and a few hours free time. Follow the fuel lines from the gas tank, and wipe them clean and dry. Dip out some flower, and coat the lines. Anywhere fuel leaks after running the lines should be visible as a wet flour clump.
Start out by checking the following... 1. Freon level.. 2. If the freon level is okay and the gauge readings are okay then.. 3. Check the inside a/c - heater controller for correct operations.. 4. Check the inside a/c - heater in-dash doors for correct operations..
Start out by checking the freon levels and if that is okay then check the pressure switches and the wire harness to the clutch....
You have a leak in the brake system, need to check the medal brake lines that run through the frame rail and goes to the back wheels, It is common for those to rust into towards the back. If lines are okay then check the wheel cylinders. If you are not low on brake fluid then you probley have a bad master cylinder.
In the eyes of the court, the person getting the ticket is at fault. There is the option to go to court and contest the ticket, and let the judge decide the proper blame.
Just ink over the pencil lines, okay
R12R12 is now illegal to use. older cars still using it are okay, but no shop will fill it or fix it using r12. you are required to have the freon flushed and the ac compressor oil changed. you then need to buy an adaptor kit and upgrade the system. You need to then use R134A Freon. R12 was banned because of what it did to the environment. Check with a local auto parts store before you attempt to use R12 and get more info. It won't tell you in your manual.Adding freon is something that should be left to someone that knows what to do and has the gauges to measure how much is being put in. If you put too much in, you can damage your air conditioning system.Now for the other side of this. Nowdays, a shop can't just add freon to a system. They have to pull the old freon out, check the system for leaks, and repair the leak if found before adding freon. Something that gets to be expensive very quickly so I can see where you would want to do it yourself and save a lot of money.See if you can find someone that will do it for you, use your freon, and not go through all the crap. maybe a mechanic that will do it on the side or something...
As long as the leak doesn't get worse, as leaks tend to do, and leave you stranded someplace with a blown engine. We'd get it fixed first.
It can be very dangerous. See this health buletin... http://www.michigan.gov/documents/cis_wsh_cet5025_90105_7.doc it really does not effect the people okay
