    Also installed new blower fan under dash and did notice water dripping steady but evap didn't seem really cold. Also cleaned the coil when I had it apart but to forgot to check temperature.

    I have a feeling I over charged it or a bad valve anyway ill check when I get home on Sunday. Ill stop by volvo and pick up a valve and follow that chart. The reason I think over fill is because I remember when the fan kicked in high gear for cooling the pressures were dropping and stated adding more Freon. That's probably why its purging.

    Well you should then get started and you'll be hooked. I got another two years driving and then its full time bees, garden and fishing. I have to tell you as a driver its kind of hard taking care of bees sometimes very demanding. I live around the Gainesville area I Florida and all this rain so far this year is hard on the bees getting pollen and nectar so I have to feed them and watch for mite build up. But I had bees so long can't live without them.

    Any idea what's causing the fan to run almost nonstop with AC on only, short breaks in 90+ degrees, seems to engage less in cooler morning weather? Coolant/ oils temp are ok, I replaces the condenser and cartridge this week. I dont remember to hear the fan running all the time like now, even in hot weather.
