Welcome to the club. Hop here from Browns Summit, NC about a minute north of Greensboro, 4hrs west of you. I think that we have several cars in Raleigh.

Good luck with your car.

The only TRUE SVX killer I know is a 40 year old woman from Western Maryland, who ROLLED 2 in a matter of months! (One of them was Tom's beloved Pearlie.)

Needless to say, she's not allowed around here OR Reading, PA.
I've just noticed a trend: Teenager+ SVX= dead SVX within 1 year. It's sad. And I want it to stop.

Not to spark a debate or anything..but this isnt really true. take a look at members like...say..Dreaming of Speed..who has had her svx for quite some time, and hasnt killed it. How about Mike621, owning his for over 2 years now, and doing a full restoration just for kicks? Midaswell mention SubaStevo, who got his svx 4 years ago (Lookign closer to 5 now) and as far as I know, he still has it. Hell, Im pretty sure that was his first car too.Then there's members like TomsSVX, who was (19?) when he got his first svx. He might have blown up a motor or two, but look at how many svxi he's given open heart surgury. Hell, I'VE killed one, but saves two afterword.
Come to think of it, the only two teenagers I know of that's killed an svx are Slon(Just because he wants to) and that kid who was chasing his buddies on steet bikes, and was in a HORRIBLE accident in which nobody was severly injured. Any other case of an svx dying was because of another driver's ignorance, or it was an adult pretending to be 17 again

Okay, that being said. Hi there! Welcome to the boards. We're a good bunch here(Even if we argue over stupid stuff) good luck with your svx...Its a great car, and if you treat it well, it'll treat you weller..er...Gooder..better.

Anyway- your question about AC: can you tell us a little more about your car and the issues/ problems you have with it ?

Welcome, nice to meet another female SVX owner. What year/color is your car? Got any pics of it? How's the transmission doing?

As far as the AC goes, check to see if it has pressure. You can buy a guage at autozone for like 15$, it screws on easily. If you have no pressure, charge it. Takes 5 min of holding a button down, extremely simple. Then see if it holds the charge for a day. If not, your o-rings are likely shot. It gets a bit more involved at that point, but if you get that stuff done, it may fix the problem, but at the very least it'll give you the general layout of the engine bay.

To check the pressure of the line, open the hood. Not far from the battery there is a metal hose running front to back of the car direction, about 3/4" diameter, and there's a blue cap. If you remove the blue cap, it'll have a place for you to hook up the nozzle. I bought this one:


You'll notice that it has the guage built in-line, with a "Low, Good, High, and Danger" color areas. If you fill to much, you can bleed the line without a problem. Which ever can you get, just be sure to read the instructions on the back, they're fairly simple and strait forward.

Good luck.
