Just picked up a '94 GT and Im trying to figure out the best place to start on trying to fix the A/C. As of now it blows warm AND has a heavy coolant smell. Where do I start?

Might be a busted heater core if you are smelling coolant.

Here some good, general A/C info: http://www.mustang-tech.org/wiki/94-95_Mustangs_Cooling_AirConditioning

And if the compressor does engage (be it by itself, or with your assistance via jumping the LPCS), let us know what kind of low and high side pressure you're seeing.

Good luck.
