Is the A/C compressor running? Or do you have a leak? I have a nice hole in my A/C condenser.

yes the A/C compressor is running. i got a leak somewhere under the dash last time i took it to the a/c place and they said it was a $500 job so i said hell with that so i just put a can of freon in here and there and this time something went wrong.

chances are the freon leaked out, if you want cold A/C you have to fix the leak properly (sounds to me like the evaporator is leaking, do the heater core while you have the dash out to fix it, its an extra part now, but saves the aggravation for later)
