[QUOTE="dpancer, post: 15014224, member: 143413"] Hold up, hold up. I never said my compressor failed completely. It was only making a grinding sound a little after I filled it up, after I put in the killer killer. About a month ago I added a bit more oil to the system and added another can of refrigerant ( to make a grand total of 3 6 ounce cans). just yesterday I did a little bit of radiator work and was under the car for a while listening to the compressor. right now I don't hear that grinding noise anymore so I assume it was an oil issue. However I'm still thinking that I want to change the compressor condenser and dryer just to be safe. I spoke to the creator of the killer trailer who suggested now would be a good time to replace the condenser as its 10 years old, that's where I'm getting the idea to replace not just the condenser but the whole system. The system seems to be cooling properly as it should be, so I'm probably just worrying for nothing. In 91 degrees temperatures my IAT2s held at around 110. After really beating the hell out of the car, with the AC off for a bit, they went to one 137 and then dropped down to 115 within 5 min right after the AC was turned on. From the time it went from 137 to 115 it was not blowing cold air on the inside. Engine temps went from 226 to215 in that time. I'm running a misimoto radiator, which I'm planning on swapping back to a stockfor temp improvements. thanks for the tips on flushing and blowing the system through with nitrogen. [/QUOTE]
