My '74 fury is a factory A/C car but it has never worked since I own the car. I can't try if it works because each time I turn on the fan the fuse blows (so I don't have heater or A/C)
I read this old systems uses R12 coolant which isn't longer used because it damage the ozone layer, so I've to upgrade the system to use R134a coolant.
I read the stock A/C compressor is very inefficient, it weights too much (45lb) and draw too much power (up to 20hp). Most of the articles I read recommends to upgrade the stock compressor to a new Sanden unit but I don't know if it really worth the price of a new compressor and I'm not sure if I've to change other parts like condenser to have my A/C properly working
