    '91 A/C reinstall ??? Can you look under your hood for me?

    Hey guys, I'm working at reinstalling my A/C system after I ripped it all out about 6 years ago (long story), and I think I have all of the parts I need, BUT I can't find the A/C Compressor connector.

    NEW A/C, COMPRESSOR WONT ENGAGE!

    Hi all! I spent all day today putting on a new compressor, accumulator, orifice tube, low side pressure switch, and relay. Of course, I flushed the hell out of the system with a half gallon of solvent through a flush gun, then shop air, then flush gun. Installed the new parts, pulled a vacuum...

    2002 Ford Explorer A/C issues

    I have a 2002 Ford Explorer with the 4.6 V8. I am having issues with the A/C not blowing cold at all. I thought that maybe the coolant was low, so I went out and bought a can of coolant, and hooked it up. I follow the directions on the can and place A/C in Max A/C setting, and fan on high. I...
