Ac Summer/winterc

[PAUL W M]

Can anyone tell me if MR T recommends using your air con in the summer and the winter .Someone told me if you do it stops the seals from drying out and leaking :(

[Jan van de Wouw]

AFAIK it is ALLWAYS recommended to run your A/C for about 15 minutes

every two weeks or so, indeed to keep all seals lubricated.

I actually USE my A/C in the winter, just had it on about half an hour ago :D

Using A/C with the defogger clears up the windows MUCH faster as the A/C

actually DRIES the air, so it doesn't blow humid air against the windscreen...

[Dan89]

sounds right.. I know that you have to turn on you A/C every once in a while because if you don´t it will break down :)

[Jan van de Wouw]

I think the Owners Manual also mentions this...

And I can assure you it WILL leak if not used freqently, at least on my

DeLorean it did and a refill with all the checks and such is expensive...

I use it now and then in the winter, defog the windscreen more efficient than without AC.

Not that my windscreen fogs up inside the car, but it happens occasionally.

Thanks for clearing up my concern about AC winter summer use , never thought about it de-misting the screen because the air was drier

I presume with the DeLorean you went back in time and started using it so it didn't fail in the future ?

Nah, my DeLorean didn't come with the TMO (Time Machine Option)...

sourcing the parts for the Flux Capacitor proves to be too much for most...

[Jan van de Wouw]

Well, they ARE hard to find, but not impossible....

The Plutonium or Mister Fusion are the parts that most people can't find...
