A/C Repair Service for Your Nissan Pulsar

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Nissan Pulsar A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know our way around Nissan vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1983 Nissan. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Nissan Pulsar

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1983 Nissan Pulsar A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If we think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Nissan Pulsar A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Pulsar A/C Recharge

While your 1983 Nissan Pulsar’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Nissan guidelines. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1983 Nissan Pulsar A/C recharges.

Common Nissan Pulsar A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Nissan Pulsar A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. And smelly A/C in a 1983 Nissan Pulsar? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Pulsar.

Frequently Asked Questions for 1983 Nissan Pulsar A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Pulsar air conditioning colder? Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why is my Pulsar A/C blowing hot air? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Pulsar’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my Pulsar A/C use gas?  The air conditioning system in your Pulsar does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • What can cause the A/C in my Pulsar to smell like vinegar? Moisture can accumulate on your vehicle’s A/C system components, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. As this bacteria grows, it can cause the air conditioning system in your Pulsar to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • What is causing my Pulsar’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? Damaged or worn components in your Pulsar’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
