AC Blowing Smoke like Stuff?

ok guys, I don’t use the ac much, but the other dayI start to realize that it was blowing smoke out of it or fregon whatever it is. I have 100500Miles on it, and I just changed my oil, anybody have any idea on what it may be? or is it bad or ok for the engine?

Was it rainy or shitty wheather at all??? Cause that happened to me once when it was raining and i just thought it was condensation or something like that. But it has never happened again so i’m not too concerned. HTH

Seen it a couple of times, may need a recharge.

Mine did that for a month, until it died and needed a recharge. It’s escaping Freon, and will give you a wicked headache if you are in the car for a while with it doing that.
Look into getting leak-stop and a recharge kit from www.autorefrigerants.com – their stuff works great. :slight_smile:

Or better yet, go HERE and at the very bottom, just below the snowman picture, is the Do-It-Yourself Recharge Kit. This stuff works.

Sometimes when humity outside and inside your car reach a certian point you may see foggy air coming out for a min or so no longer(or something like that). I wouldn’t go for a recharge yet. My moms 96 accord was doing that and my 90gs and i’m sure there is nothing wrong with the a/c. usualy it is on humid days.
