ac fuse keeps blowing

finally got the AC charged up, no leaks, compressor works good. However, the ac fuse keeps blowing whenever I crank the car? I believe I have a short in the system, any advise on how to fix?

Hmm, that's odd. The wire to the air pump is on the same circuit, so if the wires for the air pump are brittle and missing insulation, that can blow that fuse pronto if they short to ground by touching a metal part of the engine.

You'll need to do a little investigation to find the problem child - cold AC will be worth it, though!
