hey guys i had what seemed to be good working a/c in my s13 coupe before i pulled my motor for my 5spd swap which when i pulled it i left the a/c compressor in the chassis w/ lines still atatched and since putting the motor back in and reconnecting the compressor the a/c doesn't blow cold, so what i'm wondering is where do i start diagnosing because i wouldn't figure it'd need recharging all of a sudden and that maybe there's something that i forgot to reconnect or something.
I would greatly appreciate any help, thanks -Joel

You mean you left it in the chassis and didn't disconnect the lines?

How long did the AC not run for?

I mean from when you stopped using the AC, then pulled the motor, till now.

oooh ok well it's been a while since the motor was pulled back around February and before then I was only using the heat of course but before i bought the car in January I tested the a/c and it worked well it seemed although I realize now I could have been deceived since it was cold outside and it could have been cold air coming in too but anyway I notice the compressor doesn't run now when it did before it was disconnected
