A/C not working in traffic/extreme heat!
Hey,
Live in jamaica its hot as hell here (to me atleast). Recently fixed my air conditioning system. Changed drier, oiled fresh sr20ve compressor, checked thermostat, changed fans, changeed condenser, and evaporator core, changed all o rings, checked gas pressure. A/C works fine while constantly driving, during the rain, or night.
The problem is I can feel the engine change when the compressor chips out (during traffic and hot like hell days), but the car is as hot as hell, so I can't figure out why the compressor keeps happening. One a/c tech says my 4-1 header is giving off too much heat. But > 60% of you guys run after market headers and a/c still works well.
What do you guys think is the culprit?
