    Compressor/clutch noise - cause for concern?

    Spinning after the fact is normal as the high and low side equalize. The reddish dush is a sign of heat. While not necessarily an all alarm sign, it is a good sign of too much heat. If your clutch gap is good, you might want to pull the belt from that pulley and spin the pulley. Listening for...

    Maybe I should clarify. I'm not looking to do some off roading as I drive around the country. I'm planning to use roads where the law and private property say I have to and go around the country where power lines and strip malls aren't. I've seen what there is to see of the roads of this great...

    Many thanks. Yah, I tend to like the sterling/visteon axle and definitely don't mind a d60 front. In this case, I don't even mind not being kp. Should have clarified the 31s. The idea is driving the 31s and tugging my off road only tires in my current support trailer (more likely on instead of...

    Wont Start, Theft Light Flashing

    First off, congrats on a quick narrow down. Second. I don't remember if you installed the remote start or had it done so please excuse. Depending on how it's hooked up, a loose connection at the remote box could well break the circuit fully.

    Glad to read it. Just need to see if you can duplicate the concern.

    Wont Start, Theft Light Flashing

    Don't know if you tried the above or not, but if it worked, check your pats antenna. It's directly on the ignition cylinder housing.

    Wont Start, Theft Light Flashing

    Great. Let me know if it works. If it doesn't, there's a couple more avenues to check. This one is just the most common and by far simplest. Frank PS.... forgot to mention, make sure there are NO pats keys on the ring in the ignition switch for this. Same is true for l ats systms, only...

    Power Steering

    Might wanna consider flushing the ps fluid since it's easy, cheap and in general often neglected.

    Wont Start, Theft Light Flashing

    Try this. Doors nlocked, driver's window open (just in case). Key in on position for 22 -25 minutes without it being messed with (doors or anything). If after this it will start and is not a pats key, time to look into the aftermarket wiring. This is for NON transponder keys. While the same...

    Compressor/clutch noise - cause for concern?

    If I may suggest, Have someone sit inside and operate the a/c. Watch the front of your compressor. You're looking at the clutch plate on the front of the pulley. When they turn the compressor on, you want to see if the clutch (the disk) just goes to turning the speed of the pulley (normal)...

    The ex has been sitting waiting on me to repair it or convert it. Not gonna replace those completely missing radius arm bushings, tired joints or much else up front. Time for sas. Ultimate plans are an expedition / exploration rig to see some of this country that the Kenworth never showed me...
