I would like to know what all the components in the AC system. My heat works fine but no AC blows warm. I know there is a compressor but what else would need to be replaced in order to fix the AC on it. I also know there is a large leak in a hose or something within 30 min all freon is gone. When I look at 1 of the components it looks really rusted on top. How much do you figure a complete AC rebuild would cost me (not at a stealership) I believe the compressor is still good going by what the previous owner said. The blowers work perfect. When I get some cash I will take it to my local mechanic and have him put in the dye to see where the leak is, I hope fixing the leak is all that is required.
 






The accumulator rots apart on every 95-01 explorer so i would look there first.
