see i was told to flush it to get all the dirt and $hit out to make it cold....cause I bought a can of r132 or r134 whatever it was...and it didnt help. Someone told me to flush the system and then charge it again. So I want to charge it.

your a/c is a closed system. if dirt can get in then the freon is all ready gone. its obvious your not very knowledgeable in this area so i dont recomend you do anything else. you can only do more harm than good. there is a large number of things that can cause an a/c system to blow warm or not freezing cold. w/ out a/c pressures i cant help you on the computer.adding freon is not all ways the answer. you also need to know the amount you have in the system as well as how much you are adding. to much freon= no cold . to little freon = no cold

If you do an engine swap there is the possibility of getting dirt and stuff in there...and no I am not knowegable in the field but that is why i posted...i know what I am doing on cars, so I can learn it..that is why i posted. If there is a write up, I can easily follow it.

so after you put the engine in did you evacuate the system? that means hooking up a vacume pump and leaving in a vacume for 15-20 min to remove air and moisture. if this is not done it could cause problems. if you expect help you need to fully explaine your problem for someone to help.

Flush is the wrong terminology. Evacuating the system is the correct term. This is done with a good vacuum pump. Pump 'er down and pulling a good vacuum will suck all the shit and mositure (shit) from the system. Replacing whatever the system uses for a drier \ filter would be prudent.
