Air Conditioner Problem

My air conditioner when turned on is nice and cold for about 5 minutes then just blows warm air. Could it be low on freon?

Probably... I'd convert it to an OBA system (still planning on doing mine).

Dude just because you want OBA you tell the guy that's what he should do?

Buix check out this thread from the xj writeup section I found this and alot of other reading about AC in general helpful.

Get to understanding the system and move ahead. Got my AC working but only after carefully thinking it out. Dumping freon (which very well could be your problem) but just dumping freon can wreck a system. Too much freon is also a problem and can destroy the compressor.
