I am trying to determine how to troubleshoot an A/C problem. When I was driving the other day with the A/C on it all of a sudden stop blowing cold, at the same time my temp guage pegged to the hot side. I stopped and turned the A/C off and the temp guage went back to normal. I ran it with the A/C again and the same thing happened several more times on the same trip. My fist thought might be to replace the thermostat. When I went looking for it didn't jump right out where it might be, I couldn't find it.
I was wondering what you thought the problem sounded like and if it is the thermostat where it might be, I am a novice mechanic and can ususally
figure it out. The engine is a 4 clyinder 2.3L 16 valve.
Also, does this engine have a PCV, I have never been able to find it either?
