Hello all,
I own a 90 Miata with the AC option and after
10 years and no recharge, I have the merest
trickle of cool air (Notice I didn't say cold)
coming out. No recharge is available (new eco rules),
so I need a replacement.
The unit always whined when it came on anyway.
This was a known problem documented in some Miata Mag issue
in the golden age of white red blue packages, when Miata Mania
was at its peak and you were happy to pay 2000 above sticker
price. Something about how the valve let the air out.
Anyway I need a replacement.
I don't want to refit the old one to use friendlier gasses
because I hate the whine.
Mazda tell me today's AC unit won't fit the 90.
Any ideas?
