Kikr Pro Angler Registered: 05/26/03 Posts: 516 Loc: Lubbock	'97 chev 1500 The a/c quit working, so I whacked the clutch with a 2x4 and it worked until it cycled off and didn't engage again. Is there a quick way to fix this as I have to go outta town tomorrow.

Go to Wallmart and get a can or two. _________________________ F4FLIFE'S TOO SHORT TO FISH ONLY ON WEEKENDS!

Also, don't think it is low on freon 'cause it's cold when it works. WD-40 will make it slip. It sounds like the coil is bad. _________________________
