the lens is a sight glass to view the condition of the refrigerant, it should be clean if it is milky or bubbly it is either low or contaminated and if it is clear(no fluid) then you are out of refrigerant. most people have switched over to R134a which the sight glass will be of very little use as when you change over to R134a the fluid will look quite a bit different and vary depending on the evac and conditions when mixing freons.

I've actually found the hammer to be quite effective on my FC

shouldn't matter anyways, most people remove A/C from the 7 anyhow. it gets upwards of 115 degrees in the summer here so i prefer to keep it.

I took my A/C belt off just in case I sell it and somebody actually wants A/C unlike myself. I do, however, have 2-50 A/C: 2 windows down 50 miles per hour.
