The water valve is definitely working. My fan relay seems to only work when it's partially connected to the slot it's supposed to go in. Once fully inserted into the location the fans turn off. Scratching my head on that one.

I found that fitting in the second picture. It's on the low side line next to the firewall. I also couldn't find a reference to it in the FSM. I don't know why it's there so I won't begin to speculate. I do know that it shouldn't be used to mess with the freon. Use the low side fitting that's located at the front of the car to evac and charge the system.

I think you are on the right track with your condensor fan.

You're Welcome!

Look up a guy on this forum Turbogs300. He hasn't posted in a looonng time but he has the best AC advice I've seen on this forum. You might search through his posts and find what you need.

OP, what is your idle speed once the car warms up? If it's idling too low, the AC compressor shuts off...

My ac magically started working for some reason. Blows cold too. I'm at a loss of words on what caused the problem. It's been working fine for the past 4 days no issues. Wierd very wierd. I don't want to completely trust it yet though. I'd really like 2 find out what the problem was.

Is there a way to turn the idle speed up a tad?
