    How's the air flow out of the vents? Strong or weak?

    Not on a 99 kenworth. The heater core and evap sit beside each other. The temp control shuts off the water when you slide it to cool. When the blower motor runs it pushes air flow through the evap then it goes through the heater core to the vents.

    Strong when it isn't freezing up but restricted when it freezes.

    That's weird. That's the job of the trinary or high pressure switch to turn it off.

    Well, you won't have to worry for long. At that high pressure your seals will go and the gas will leak out and problem solved.

    You need to concentrate on the high pressure switch and make sure it works from start to finish.

    That's odd. If you give me till tomorrow, I'll ask my instructor to see what he thinks.
