I started my car up today, drove it a couple feet, and I hear a boom and smoke or steam goes EVERYWHERE. The car still runs fine but my A/C doesn't work. What the hell did I do.

 

yes

 

btw i need a/c very bad cuz its 90 degrees in florida and i have a black car

 

Check to see if pressure in A/C system. A line could of let go. Be careful-Freon dangerous.

 

how would I do that?

 

check the a/c lines under the hood. There will be 2 places to release the freon, one on each major line. Take the little black **** off the take a screwdriver or something like that to the needle that is there (just like letteing air out of a tire) If nothing comes out then something is wrong. Cover your hand and make sure its not spraying close to you face. Also do it out side.

 

Check PM

 

k, no more pressure in a/c system, wtf do i do now?

 

it's a o-ring, My car did the same thing. The o-ring coming from the compressor or the one at the top of the a/c, my o-ring got old and i guess it just rotted and let the freeon come out. I converted it R134 or what ever a long tme ago too.... i'll take pics and post them.

 

Take it to a shop. They'll put a small charge in and find the leak. Replace faulty hose(?) and recharge with R-12 which is very expensive, or good time to convert to 134.

 

thats where mine leaks
