yes those are tech sites as well, and i do frequently ask questions on there... but not knowing some of the member's experience with cars sometimes the information they give is not reliable... where here in our local "tech" forum i have a general idea of the people who know what they are talking about...

if i didnt make any effort on this a\c i would have probably just taken it to a shop and had them do eveyrthing.... but i am the the one doing the work... if i did make any sort of corner cutting it was due to lack of knowledge... resulting in me asking online... if i know that taking the easy \ cheap route to fixing cars isnt %100 proof why would one do it?? in my case i am not a god of air conditioning or anything on the 240sx so if i cut a corner , it was by accident and lack of knowledge... thanks anyway
