Anybody know much about A/C?

[Stumblinman]

I must apologize I didn't know this was a serious no nonsense forum. I will refrain from commenting on the lighter side to your questions in the future if need be. As far as the door comment it is because it is a running joke with my family/friends because I grew up in little Jeeps and have never had a/c in them. If you were hot it meant you weren't driving fast enough.

I've only seen the guages being sold for around $80 and up which if you aren't going to use them a lot it doesn't seem worth the $ in my book. Although I didn't think about the skill shop on base maybe having them. If you have a sight port you can look for bubbles. If it has a lot/looks foamy it's low. (yes I know you've checked it but this is also a tell-tale sign which you can file away as useless knowledge)

Good luck.
