So my AC in my truck has quit blowing cold. I just had it charged, at max, 3 mths ago. Any ideas what's going on? And, how do I recharge it myself?

You don't charge it yourself - that's a quick way to grenade the compressor. Take it to a pro to find the leak, fix it, and charge the system correctly.

Where are you?

I figured as much. I was hoping there was something I could do myself and save a little money. I am in Texas.

You'll save a LOT of money by letting a pro handle it. Just find one you can trust (yeah, I know that can be difficult).
