All good...someone searching for the 991 part in the future will find this thread.
Dumb question: The fuse in location b10....25amps. Is that fuse solely for the compressor part of the system? I blow that fuse when I hit the snowflake button.
My question is...is it ONLY compressor issues that cause this fuse to blow...or would a bad relay and a good compressor still potentially blow this fuse?
Would much rather buy a $30 relay than a $300 compressor.

Bear minimum (assuming the compressor you are replacing did not lock up, seize, or is making funky sounds): replace drier and compressor, new orings, insure the right amount of PAG46 is in there, evacuate, charge and test.

Most likely your ac clutch is shorted(the front part of the compressor)

Good for you on a 30 degree drop. Try to do that on a stock 911 air cooled at 90F ambient.
I'm not knocking your cart, I'm simply stating the facts. We have been doing AC for over 25 years. We sell products to P dealerships, P's restoration center, P aftermarket repair shops, warehouse distributors, other retailers and quite a few DIY's: worldwide for many P models.
The list of problems we discuss over the phone when regarding equipment is endless.
And, in terms of used compressors, you cannot tell based on mileage or looks. Simply a fact.
