I hope someone can help me on this. The AC on my 2001 subaru legacy outback stops working (1st day of hot weather). When I turn on AC at the idle, there is no 'kick' or slow down of the engine. I checked the fuse. It is good. Could the coolant leaks out over the winter? I seem to remember if the coolant is too low, the compressor won't come on. The car has 140K miles. Maybe it is time for a coolant re- charge?
