Information provided by   Mike C   First, repair whatever caused the original a/c leak/failure before recharging... otherwise your new refrigerant will just leak out again. Most a/c leaks will accumulate a wet/greasy mess. Look at the joints in all of the a/c hoses/pipes for messes. If grease is everywhere (as is common on older cars) then you'll have to clean all the joints and re-fill one more time. A pro shop might do exactly this - with a ultraviolet (UV) dye added. Simple Green works well

Has anyone done a conversion from the auto climate control to a simple manual control with knobs or levers of some sort? I feel like having the climate control with no AC is just overkill and having the HVAC computer in there is pretty annoying too.
