Need advice if further action needed. '04 100 series w/ 230K miles. AC stopped blowing cold. Dealer said hole in condenser and quoted a big $ to replace. I tried a bottle of Red Angel stop leak. Bought the 2oz bottle and an oil injector. Got it in with a can of 134A and ac blowing 40 degrees. That was 3 weeks ago and so far, it's holding the charge so I'm feeling optimistic that this product worked.
But here's the thing. In Houston in the afternoon now that it's HOT, when I turn to max cold and the fan on high, it doesn't blow very cold. It will blow 70 degree air. When I turn the fan to low, temp will begin to fall and get back to near 40. And when I turn the fan back up, temp rises. Anyone know what's up with that?
Second question, which may have something to do with the first. Any further action needed? i.e. now that system apparently has its hole(s) plugged, should I do a professional evacuate and recharge?
Thanks in advance for advice.
