Air con not working?

AC not cold enough?

Don't know what the problem is and can't find the solution in the Repair Database?

All is not lost with this simple modification which works on any make or model:

Hahaha, I've seen people with them stuck into windows (thatwillbuffout.com during the summer months), BUT I haven't seen this one with the generator on the back. That's amazing.

On a side note, I didn't know any Lincoln Continentals of that vintage actually still worked.

@ Jblackburn, You're under the assumption that it runs, look at it... there's no way! Someone has got to be living in there...
Speed has never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary... That's what gets you.
