Can using recirculate with car A/C systems hurt them?

So if it's real hot out use recirculate, but otherwise use fresh air to avoid short cycling?

Not sure, but might want to check how hard it is to recharge it yourself. We did it on our Volvo today, second or third time actually, and it takes no more than 10 minutes!

Tried. Damned GM put the low pressure cap way down behind the engine next to the firewall and you can't get to it with the home recharge kits.

Get rid of the Malibu. I've never had a problem using A/C on recirculate. If that POS car can't handle running the A/C on recirc. there's something wrong with it or it's just poorly designed.
