95-850- A/C issues 850

Run, doesn't run, isn't much of a clue. If it 'works' when the engine is cold and stops after warm up, then I suggest looking at the compressor clutch. 3 exterior shims might be all that is needed if the clutch gap is approaching .040

If you son is not a klutz, lightly pushing on the clutch plate with the engine running and not delivering cold air should engage the clutch. Beware of the belt!

Shimming the clutch is quite easy after removing the splash pan.
