Air Conditioning - Coils/A-frames  
I had an A/C repairman look at my furnace/blower because the air flow would stop after the thermostat would kick on the A/C. After I turn the A/C for a long time, the air would flow again, but then stop.

I suspected the A-frame in the coil was freezing up on me, and that I probably only needed some refrigerant.When the A/C guy looked at it though, he said I needed a whole new coil for (a price of $900!!!). He said there was a leak in the coil and showed me some slightly rusted areas and some water on the coil base...but isn't this normal when the A/C is running to have some condensation?

He put some more refrigerant in the compressor and now it works fine without the air stoppage. Should I call the guy back to fix the coil or not? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Well, I would say, that if it is working fine now... leave it. If the problem returns, well then he is right and you will need to call him back to replace the coil. It is true that there will be condensation, but also, I imagine that he knows what he is looking for.
