Re: [A/S] Air Conditioner on Fritz

 

Hunter,

I've been watching your AC adventures. Glad you were able to get it kick

If you can it would be a good idea to have someone go on top, remove the
cover and give the guts a good cleaning. There is nothing you can "lube"
but just getting years of dirt etc out will help a lot.
