Climate control and coolant issues

1995 850Turbo, 143,000 miles

Hi,
I have several issues related to my cooling/climate control that I'd like to address: Any help/advise is appreciated!
First a little history-This may be unrelated to the current issue, but just in case it isn't I though I'd put it in. About 7 months ago the AC ...

Re: What is this?

I should add that the IC chip and board were covered with clear RTV- I'm assuming that the previous owner broke it and didn't want to fix it.

Re: What is this?

There must be an electrical connector swinging in the breeze somewhere in there...It will have the rest of that broken switch...I believe that switch is called a pressostat...

it's in the foreground of the 2nd pic, plugged into a dummy port (why it's there I have no clue!) I just put it there ...

What is this?

1995 850Turbo, 143000 miles or so.
Can anyone tell me what this is? it looks like it's part of a sensor that may have broken off? I'm pretty sure it's part of the AC.

Thanks in advance!

Pat

Re: Front engine mount

I need the actual metal mounting bracket- mine is broken- I suspect that it broke when the upper bushing deteriorated a while back. Do you sell one?
Thanks!

Front engine mount

1995 850 turbo wagon 140,000 miles.
Does anyone know where I can find a front engine mount? I noticed today while I was under my car changing the oil that mine is broken. It appears to have been broken for a while as the remaining parts are pretty beat up and show oxidation.
It is at the front of ...

AC died

Hi,
1995 850 turbo wagon 140,000 miles.
I was sitting at a light the other day and heard a loud pop and a puff of steam came out front the front of the car.
After I got home ( I was less than a mile away) I popped the hood and there was Bright green stuff all over the front of the engine where ...

Re: Serpentine Belt- broke something

I'm not sure how many miles- my odometer gear broke a couple years back and I haven't bothered going in and changing it. I know it's at least two years old, and at least 4-5 oil changes (based on the service timer)

I figured out where the wires went- they went to what looked like a "dummy" plug ...
