Helping Out My Car Air Conditioning Part 3!

In the hot island I call home sweet home, I always seek ways to improve my Car air conditioning system.
This is a simple means to Insulate the suction line in the engine bay using off the shelf air conditioning insulation tape.

Wrapping the Suction Line.

Why the suction line? This line gets really cold during operation. I cut 12 inch lengths of the tape and wrapped it tightly in a 45 degree angle around the line.

Completion and Testing.

Once completed, I put a few zip ties to ensure the wrapping stays on even though it is adhesive. Starting the engine and having the air conditioning working.. I'm pleased with the results. A small improvement but every bit helps. From a freezing air conditioning in hot sun to a bit more freezing? I won't complain!
