A/C Survey

[calimus@techography.net (Calimus)]

1. I did empty the system, but no vacuume was pulled.
2.  I did not replace the dryer or any other parts for that matter
3.  The system was not open to the atmosphere at any time since I've
owned it.
4.  No deactivation was occuring but I only ran it once when I got the
car and you couldn't tell the difference between it being on A/C ond
just normal outside air.
