What causes the air conditioner to stay hot in a Lincoln Town Car?

The most common reason would be that you are low of R-134a. The best way to determine this is to use a gauge and get the PSI reading. (This should be done when the compressor is running and the clutch is engaged). Most auto parts stores are willing to help you get a reading. If you are indeed low of R-134a you need to fill your system to the correct PSI level. (This is determined by the current ambient temperature) If the compressor is not running you could fill the system with one can of R-134a, the compressor should start short cycling. If it doesn't do not put anymore R-134a in and seek professional help.


Can you use r-134a instead of r-22 Refrigerant?

10 years ago they kept telling us that replacing R12 a/c system with 134 gas was not recommended because will destroy the compressor and so on, I have retrofitted all my vehicles to 134A with no negative consequences ,so I believe it can be done Just have to evacuate the system totally and remove the oil from the condenser,evaporator and receiver dryer(Filter) and add the recommended oil for 134A gas .

What is the replacement for freon in air conditioning system?

"Freon" is a trademark of DuPont for their CFC and HFC refrigerants. Thus, if you actually have Freon as manufactured by DuPont, then the replacement would be the same type of refrigerant manufactured by any other manufacturer. For example, if you had a car with an R-12 (CFC-12) air conditioning system, then you would only replace it with R-12. Same thing if you have a car with an R-134a (HFC-134) system - you can only replace it with R-134a. Never mix refrigerants and never use a refrigerant other than the type specified for your system.


How do you charge the ac refrigerant on a 2001 jaguar s-type?

AC compressor mounting is on bottom right of engine....access from underneath....Suction line is the larger line leading from compressor....remove dust cap...start car.....turn on ac....to lowest setting....on 134a use a recharge kit with pressure guage....know the ambient temperature (outside temp) before attaching ....if compressor is not running....keep hose and 134a attached....shaking can ....a low pressure switch is on this system to protect compressor .....when compressor starts continue with adding 134a.....rotating container from 12 to 3 oclock position.....note pressure....when pressure and ambient temperature are within range ....stated on 134a container...disconnect....hose....you should know ambient temp /pressure setting before you start refill...advisable to use a 134a with refrig. oil and leak seal....if system is low on refrig....will take 2-3 cans to bring within pressure range....do not overfill.....stay within pressure limits....this process will take 10-15 minutes to complete after refrig. hose is attached....be patient....somewhat slow process....read directions on refrig. can as a reminder for process....happy cooling....cecil...
