that's pretty damn spot on !
I was trying to correlate why you wanted the condenser misted .
Now I know.
As far as the fans, I could use a 30 amp relay and tie the coil voltage for that relay
to the hot compressor wire and feed the fans from straight B+ voltage across that relay

both fans kick in and run full tilt and then cycle off and on. when im using the 24" fan, they dont kick on until I run the rpm up for extended periods of time. the better or worse operation of the ac / vent temps are chasing around with the ambient. I may have it over charged . can I take a te...

when I did the compressor / accumulator / condenser changeout last year
I dropped exactly 7oz of PAG 46 into the compressor

new condenser last year but you never know

I have some more input. Had the car parked in the big garage because of fake hurricane. we had no winds and zero rain. we are only 10 miles from the open Atlantic Ocean.

I just want to get a look at it to see if its got a bunch of crap on it causing a restriction. it would be crazy to go to the trouble of getting it out and not just replacing it. its not an easy access place. there will be some cu...

yes the 24" fan blew through the grill the entire time of testing and adjusting the charge. the fans on the car only came on a couple of times. Good idea on bypassing the heater core to eliminate it as an issue. I thought the head was too high for the suction pressure thats why I mentioned a hi...

you bring up some excellent points. I did not flush the system as I should have. im wondering if theres a lot of crap in the orifice tube. I just took it out for a drive and I can feel the temp from the vent relating to the compressor shutting off and then back on in light to light traffic and hard ...

Im a new user and would appreciate it if someone could help me understand what this cars ac system is telling me. This is a 2005 ford focus that belongs to my girlfriend. It was owned by her and her dad and he's since passed so there's no way she wants to part with the car. I just keep fixing everyt...
