I have a 1994 Honda Accord LX that seems to have a freon leak. At
about this time last year the A/C started making a funny noise and
pretty soon it was blowing hot air alternating with cold air for 30
second intervals. We had the A/C checked out. The mechanic said it
was
low on freon so he refilled it. He said there might be a leak and to
watch it. It worked great all winter and the first half of this
summer.

Well, last week it died again, only this time it went out a lot
quicker. I'm sure there's a leak somewhere in it.


What is the best action at this point? The car is old and has nearly
200,000 miles. I don't want to spend hundreds on it, but it is very
hot now in Utah which makes having no A/C very uncomfortable. I've
seen refill kits in the newspaper adds that claim to have leak
stopping abilities. Do those work?


I would appreciate any suggestions or words of wisdom.


Thanks
