Guys, I've searched the board and read the numerous threads on this topic, but can't seem to find the info that I need. Here is the issue with my 91 NSX...
A few weeks ago, my AC wasn't blowing cold (actually I had the same problem stated by someone in a previous thread where the left side of the center vent blew warmer than the right side of the center vent).
I took it by my local shop and they said I was low on Freon so they added some to the system. This procedure brought my A/C to about 90% of normal.
I let the car sit for about two weeks (only drove it short trips and didn't use the A/C), but when I tried to use the A/C yesterday, it was not blowing cold again!
How would I know if this is because of the cursed problem with the 91-92 evaporator or if I have a leak somewhere in the system and just need to have that corrected, add more freon and then I'm good to go?
Also, if it is the evaporator that is the problem:
Is buying a used one (I saw one for sale from another 91 on this board) ok or do I need to buy a new one from Acura? In other words is the problem with the orginal 91 evaporator or is the problem with the set up of the 91-92 cars? I don't want to buy someone else's 91 evaporator if the problem is with the part itself...I like to gamble, but not on things like this.
I welcome your advice. Thanks in advance.
