My 90 Cherokees A/C compressor turns on most of the time,but not others. It works fantastic when the compressor kicks on but the rest of the time it just smells like mildew.
Ill explain my situation:
I was told there was no R-12 left in my system so I didnt technically evac it because I was told it was empty so I didnt figure it necessary.
I charged it with three cans of R-134a and it turned on most of the time but shakes the whole car and makes a horrid noise when its on.
I about three months after adding the R-134a added an oil charge to her and it quited down a little and turned on more frequently.
What are my best options here?
Is my compressor shot or does it just need to be evacced.
I will say when it was legitimately running on R-12 I only remember it being cold sometimes but that could've just been because it was running low.
Any help would be greatly appreciated its getting pretty hot here in Iowa.
