300M ac

Isn't it a fundamental law of Usenet that if you correct grammar, you make a grammar mistake? I guess if you try to clear up "condensor/evaporator" you're guaranteed to make the same mistake too :-p

You've had very good

I didn't mean to imply it had never been repaired- its had an EVAPORATOR (see, got it right that time) replaced and shortly thereafter I had to replace the compressor (probably from oil starvation due to all the oil leaking out the leaky evaporator). But that was well over 100k miles ago.

You have got to be kidding. They replaced a head gasket and they're not responsible for coolant leaks? That's just crazy.

This doesn't make sense. April1rst is referring to the head gasket work. You are referring to the head gasket work. There's wasn't any confusion. It fits.

Thanks to everyone for all their help.

End result is that the ac started cooling again without any repair. So maybe it was just a control system screw up and the system fixed itself. Perhaps a stuck door. I gave my wife the instructions to reset the system but it actually started cooling before she tried the reset and she never got the reset to work (no flashing display). So we will let things rest for now. I guess this is one time I can say "cannot duplicate problem".

I had a similar problem on a K-car body New Yorker that over time finally failed solid. Turned out to be a temp sensor probe attached to an A/C pipe near the firewall, it slid into a metal sheath built into the pipe. Anything with similar function on the 3ooM ? Steve
