Oldsmobile Delta 88 A/C Repair

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 Oldsmobile Delta 88 A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Oldsmobile vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1983 Oldsmobile A/C systems. Bring your Oldsmobile Delta 88 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1983 Oldsmobile Delta 88’s A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. If we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Oldsmobile Delta 88 A/C system that can detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Delta 88 A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 1983 Oldsmobile Delta 88 A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Then, they’ll use Oldsmobile’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you're ready to get back on the road. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1983 Oldsmobile Delta 88 A/C recharges.

Other Oldsmobile Delta 88 A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Oldsmobile Delta 88 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. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1983 Oldsmobile Delta 88? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Delta 88 — without all the sweat puddles!

1983 Oldsmobile Delta 88 A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my Delta 88 air conditioning colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why is my Delta 88 A/C blowing hot air? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • What can cause an A/C system leak? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your Delta 88's A/C system.
  • Does my Delta 88 A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your Delta 88 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 does it mean if the A/C in my Delta 88 smells like vinegar? If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your Delta 88 creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Delta 88’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? Damaged or worn components in your Delta 88’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.
