'Surprised how nicely this one worked last Sat. We arrived way early; sat
with the car idling and keeping us nice and cool for an hour.

Nice to hear it's still working well!
I have discovered another cause of "poor cooling" after switching to
R134a -- a bad monovalve. Drove my mother's TE to work yesterday to pick
up a used TV antenna (which didn't arrive as it turned out, long story),
and found that just like my second 300D, it blows hot air forever with the
AC compressor not running. It also fails to heat well, same cause I
suspect. A monovalve that doesn't close will add enough heat at idle to
make the car too warm -- just as if there wasn't enough cooling capacity,
since there isn't with added heat!

A whole year since I started my evapectomy project!! Time sure goes fast
when you're having fun, but I'm not having THAT much fun!
BTW, it's still cooling nicely, too - 'sure saved us last Sat awaiting the
wedding.
