> The AC on my 87 Synchro stops completely six minutes into cooling normally, like as if the high pressure switch was trying to tell me something. After a ten minute shutdown wait, you can repeat the above as often as you like. Seems to drop out faster at hiway rpms rather than local traffic. Seems to get "supercold" just before dropout. Could this be the receiver/dryer full of grunge? Can this part be cleaned or must it be replaced? Are there rebuild kits? Will the dryer from a Sicorro or a Rabbit or a Golf or a Jetta or whatever work? Any suggestions? -- Many thanks, Don Lancaster Synergetics Press 3860 West First Street Box 809 Thatcher, AZ 85552 Voice phone: (520) 428-4073 email: don@tinaja.com Visit my GURU's LAIR web site at http://www.tinaja.com Know your acronymns: url = utterly rancid location net = not entirely true www = world wide wait |
