Re: vintage Air POS
Wow... going on 8 years in my C10 without so much as a recharge and my A/C gets used from March/April to as late as September. This isn't a truck that sits either, I've probably put 40K miles on it since then, with countless hours sitting in traffic.
Liked it so much it's in my 65 Mustang as well, this will be the 3rd summer. I had an issue with it last year, but it turned out to be a Schrader valve had a slow leak on the fill port. I used it for the first time a few weeks ago and it's nice and cold still.
Pics of damage?
How old is the system? I'd have to guess at least 3-5 years with your mileage. What do you reasonably expect VA to do, replace the whole thing for free? That's not a realistic expectation, unless you're still within the warranty period.
Sanden Compressors are about the best there is, and I believe all aftermarket companies for these trucks use them.
