Yep, Kaiser's right; another Zetec has me thrilled
As far as the A/C goes, I say do it yourself. You can get everything you need from Wal-Mart for about $25 and it takes maybe 20 minutes. If you need details, let me know and I can give you the play-by-play on how to do it.
Let me ask you a quick question, though. Does your compressor cycle on/off quite a bit (like every 15 seconds or so)? If not and your system is low, you'll only need about 8 to 10 ozs. of R134a. If your compressor is cycling, you'll need more like 16 ozs. (I know, I've had a leaky system before.) I have the hoses and guages. If you wanted to pick up a can of refrigerant and meet somewhere we can fill it on the spot.
And welcome to the board! I was getting lonely being the only 4-banger
Maybe Keith can put this pre-98 Zetec to good use.
EDIT: Hey, I just noticed it's MTX, also. Ever thought about taking it to run the 1/4?
