AC Not Getting Cold
Appreciate the responses - I just put a block off valve on the heater core hose. Made a small difference but is still not blowing cold. I'm going to take the cover off the evaporator housing and inspect for leaks and get temps at the evaporator core. Will post with the results!- josh454
