      Remember everyone, R3V is a harsh place sometimes, learn to recall one simple rule of thumb

      1) The internet is NOT serious business.

          Oh, yeah. I used to be really into that stuff but working on one all day doesn't inspire you to do it more at home. I do volunteer at FreeGeek, though. So I disassemble/recycle/build computers there.

              Waterpumps need replacing? I just keep packing JB Weld into the old bearings to keep it going.

                  Why use recovered R12 when there are so many alkylbenzene compatible alternatives? Turf is right about one thing- you need to locate and fix your leaks FIRST. If you're willing to make the trip I'd be happy to help you get your system up and running for the cost of parts and materials.

                    Yeah. 10toes is Jeff with the swapped late model 318is on gold BBS. E30rooster is Alex, who is doing the LSX install on his early model.

                            Cause I can't tell if I have leaks. But um for sure out of refrigerant. I looked through the little window with it on and nada.

                                Your compressor has to be operating in order to see any bubbles in the sight glass. If you have no remaining charge in the system the suction pressure will likely be below the threshold of your low pressure switch, in which case your compressor clutch will not engage.

                                Use a jumper wire to give the clutch connector 12v directly from the positive battery connections at the passenger side firewall while the engine is running and tell us what happens.
