“....Your car does not have a temp sensor in the evaporator like the newer models.....”

Interesting. So is it the cabin temp sensor that tells the compressor when to cycle off? (Something has to tell it to cycle on/off/on/off so that the evaporator doesn’t freeze up.) If it’s the cabin temp sensor that governs the compressor then good call to not run it for long on max cold. A good de-linting of the sensor may a good idea. It could have 20 years worth of build/up in there.
