Auto Air Conditioning & Heater Repair: Honda AC Problem, reed valve, valve problems


Question
I have a 95' Honda Accord.  My AC worked great last year but this year sometimes blows very cold and then blow just cool.  I had the freon checked yesterday and it was fine.  The car has 169K miles and otherwise is great.  Any suggestions?

Thanks

Answer
You need to put a set of A/C gages on the system to see what the pressures are doing.

You may need an expansion valve (orfice tube) or you may have internal REED VALVE problems inside the compressor.

The gage pressures will tell you.
