So I've been painfully struggling to drive my car in this 95 degree heat + humidity. My car has had a weak and squealing A/C compressor when I try to operate it. The can of refridgerent that I put in it back in June just wasn't enough to make the system work cooly.
I put another can in it, and guess what! It works! But it still locks up the belt ruining the power steering. I have always had a problem with that belt not being on tight enough.. so I went out and bought a gear wrench to work on it. The power steering bracket is very difficult to get at without it.
Once the belt was tightened back up the whole system worked beautifully. Who knew all I needed was a tightened belt and one more can of refridgerant!? I wish I had known that back when we took a road trip to Chicago in the blistering sun.
