How cold is your A/C??
Now that the weather is turning a bit warm (here in Cal. anyway), I was wondering what temps you guys are seeing out of your vents? Please include the following info:
Year and model of your car Temp coming out of the vent Temp outside the car Any mods to your system R134, R12, or Freeze 12 Do not stick the thermometer in the freezer before testing.:D |
85 911
68 degrees from vent 95 degrees outside Bone stock system R134 Thanks for the replies |
1) 1980 911SC
2) Outside temp plus thirty degrees 3) Inside temp minus thirty degrees 4) no a/c mods 5) R nuttin' |
Was cruising down hwy 80 on Sunday. temp outside was about 89 and tried the AC for the first time in many months. No cool air I can tell you that. I think the temp coming out was in the 70s. Ran it for about 20 minutes, I am an optimist, in the end I gave up and rolled the windows down...
Worked last summer though. |

I get very very low 50s if cruising below 95 F much worse in bad traffic. I removed evaporator and cleaned it up a bit and had the system recharged. Next plan is to go with Duracool and add underbelly condensor, probably deleting rear deck lid condensor to stop blowing hot air on a hot engine in the summer. |
1986 930
Mid-30's (~40 below outside ambient) Mid-70's Stock Freeze 12 |
84 Targa
Mid to high 40s if I'm moving, sitting on the freeway will go to mid 50s. This is when its 95 out Some after market a/c with a small condensor in the tail lid I added some computer muffin fans to improve air flow when idling, helped a lot and at a total cost of $5. What looks like a Griffiths condensor in the left rear wheel well (next to the cat of all places) R-12 topped off with Freeze 12 a month ago. |
78SC
high 30s mid-high 80s rear fender condenser from Griffith's, stock decklid condenser R12 Somewhere in the archives I posted actual temperatures. I can redo when summer rolls around. |
84 Targa (not very "air tight")
Stock Nippondenso compressor Stock condensers Barrier hoses Additional condenser/fan in front left fender ProCooler R12 Outside: 90 degrees Vent temps: 38 degrees +/- |
taking out my AC may have not been the most thought out plan. my only saving grace, was that the condensor was shot. and my hoses were ripped. thinking of my next system today. my boring truck is looking very attractive this summer.

82 911SC Targa
34 degrees from vent 90 degrees outside Bone stock system R12 |
There'll prolly be a follow-up from me soon as I'm about to dive into AC land this afternoon as I blew refrigerant all the f*&# over my engine bay last Sat.
At least there's a heat-wave in LA right now! |
Stock A/C, R12.

'88 Club Sport
No a/c from the factory '78sc 3.2 Came with air......took it off last week ! If it get's too hot I'll steal the wife's 850 Turbo. If I have to, I'll drive the POS Pontiac Grand Prix (company car.....ugh!). |
'82 Targa
Stock A/C system with Duracool installed last year. I'm in the low 40's with outside temps in the mid 90's. Plan on adding the Performance Aire static condensor (underbelly), new drier-receiver, and new expansion valve, hopefully sometime this year. The Duracool definitely cools better than the R-12 that I was running. |

I can delete my post if it's too off topic for ya all. Give me the word and it's done.
No A/C it's broke, ready to pull it to save weight and say I did something useful. |
