[diesel_mercedes] AC Service Upgrades

 

True Al ;

However , there's  always been the basic Hot Rodders trick of getting the BIGGEST condenser you can fit , like from a 1960's Caddy , and using it .

These days one can also use the vastly improved SNDEN compressor , it makes more pressure with less horsepower , this means one has to be very careful in charging it becsuse too much Freon makes less cold , not more .

I plan to do some up grades on my W123 Coupe and will post as I go along .

Actually in that vintage Mercedes was never able to get the AC working well enough to satisfy the more demanding clients in the hotter areas of the US.  It goes back to the climate in Germany, and the mind set of the engineers and management "we don't need no stinking AC or cup holders"
