Went out camping for the weekend, and tried the dash A/C on the way home today. It still works from last year when we changed over to Duracool! Amazing! But the compressor runs (howls) for 20 seconds and the air gets REAL cold, then the compressor shuts off for 20 seconds, and the air gets outside hot. 20 on, 20 off. That seems like too much cycling. Do I need to check the refrigerant "level" again? Does it sound low? If it's low, and I add some more Duracool, will the dash air still get as cold?

Thanks,

John
