my 99 sohc ac works fo a minute then gets hot, so i thought get a little 134 and all would be well, not so, seems when the car is cool (first start up) the pressure on the low side is normal and the air is cold, after running a few minutes the low pressure, cold line gets hot and the pressure goes off the scale?? what could be causing this??
