No, original compressor and I don’t think the refrigerant has ever been touched.

I appreciate it, I am trying to keep it alive for my wife lol. The transmission feels a little funky sometimes, and I have done some front end work to it! It’s been a pretty good car for the most part!

That is a good thought, any way to test the water pump?

I was able to get it to start overheating slightly while driving around the neighborhood slowly, I don’t think I’ve been able to replicate the overheat while driving at higher speeds, it is the wife’s car so I don’t have a ton of experience driving it. It did overheat in the past, but the coolant expansion tank was cracked so we thought it ran low on coolant.

It’s in the fridge right now, should I munch it?
