I've had freezing cold for 2 months now - as we come into summer - after going almost a year without good AC.

I'm in the Bahamas where it's hot all year long.

The evaporator core replacement is a big job requiring the whole dash to come down. I paid $880 and the job was done right at a professional AC shop.
Hey there Captn,

Diagnosis for this was pretty simple: Ice chunk mashed up condenser, so I replaced it. Evaporator failure is also fairly simple diagnoses: leaking refrigerant into the condensation drain = evap core bad

For the tools, I rented those for free from Pepboys, so thats not really a concern for me. Not really a whole lot too it, just the Manifold Gauges and the Vacuum Pump

All Mechanics started with 0 experience.
