Pulsing AC suction line, 83 240D
Looking at some things on my daughters 83 240D.
At idle the vacuum hose going to the compressor is pulsing. The AC runs fine but I have never seen the pulsing effect that the car is doing. Anyone heard of this? I have not put gauges on the car, I will do that this weekend. I will also check the evaporator temperature sensor this weekend. It may be allowing the evaporator to freeze up and the expansion valve is freezing up which makes the line pulse. Its sucking as hard as it can but no freon gets through. Any ideas? Dave

..or the expansion valve is clogged.
