Re: Ice on pipe from evaporator
Presuming the charge isn't low, If the evaporator temp sensor is out of spec, it could cause the evaporator core and suction line to ice-up by keeping the compressor on too long.

Ice on pipe from evaporator
When the A/C on my 2002 Civic SI is on, I can see ice forming on the surface of the pipe coming from the evaporator. This evaporator was installed less than one year ago, because the previous evaporator was leaking. The A/C has been working since then, but has never been strong, which, I thought, wa...

Aftermarket A/C compressor for 2002 Honda Civic SI
I own a 2002 Honda Civic SI (the hatchback model with the 2.0 VTEC engine, different from all other Civic).
The OEM compressor is made by Honda (or Honda put its name on It, if it is made by somebody else)
What would be a good aftermarket compressor to use for replacement?
Thanks
