Hi, When I bought my 4.0l 1990 Ranger 4months ago it was in pretty good condition but I noticed that the AC did not work. When the weather started get warmer over here few weeks ago I recharged the AC and since then it has been working erratically. Sometime it works and sometime it doesn't. Within 15mns it would go from cold to no cold. The pressure seams OK and if there was a leak I would think that the AC would stop gradually to make any cold which does not seam to be the case here. I was thinking about may be an electrical problem as I noticed that when it stops making cold and if I repeatedly press the AC button it will eventually start getting cold again. Could that also be a failing compressor? Any suggestion what I should start trouble shouting? Thanks in advance and BTW great article from MAKG
