[V8] AC Failure (Paperclip confession)

Not that I want to get shot down, but my 90 V8 had a paperclip in the high
pressure switch connector when I bought it 5 years ago.  I had the a/c
serviced shortly thereafter and replaced the switch.  No leaks detected, but
I don't think the new switch solved the problem.  Anyway, it's 5 years
later, the a/c still blows icy cold and there is still a paperclip lurking
up front.

 

The car will probably blow up next time I drive it now.

 

On a separate question - my brake pedal has a really weird sort of
kick-back.  When you press down it gives a sort of single kick back up.  The
only other car I have ever felt this on was my mother's 1981 200 turbo which
did it for the whole time she owned it.  Any ideas?
