I don't mean to hijack the thread, but what does it mean if the compressor turns on and it doesn't blow cold? I understand that the compressor won't turn on if there's no pressure in the system; I had that issue last year, took it to a shop, they lubricated the system and filled it with Freon, it stopped blowing cold a few months later so they replaced the line ports and recharged it. In both cases they told me I didn't have any leaks, and I haven't used it since until about a week ago. I tried putting one of those recharge kit gages on it but either the gage is broken/clogged or I truly have 0 psi in my A/C system.
Thanks!
Also, last year I was able to find a very detailed DIY thread that walked through a bunch of troubleshooting steps on this forum, now I can't seem to find it with either the search function or in google. Any ideas?

Funny thing, i bought the jeep from my mom, and she had two or three recent receipts for evac and recharge, and pressure switches each receipt totaling over $200. In the end the fix was free! I believe that there is a how-to somewhere on here about the clutch clearance --checking with a feeler gauge.

There's a youtube vid that shows how the later air gap is checked, using a special press and depth gauge.
