The videos were very informative - especially the one that tells how to clean the condenser. Although it looks like a simple job, I don't think I would do it my self, as I have several pets and don't want to use any toxic chemicals on my property.

Someone on this forum recommended a place near where I live that specializes in air conditioning for vintage vehicles. I went there today, and the manager told me they had done 3 Vanagons in the past 30 days! I will be going there on Monday morning to have them take a look at my AC. It looks like there's a good chance I'll have a functioning air conditioner very soon! Patti 90 Westy Automatic North Hollywood, Los Angeles
