Howdy. I miss driving my truck. I miss the board. I think I'm back. Remind me to update my signature.
I haven't got my '92 XL out mainly cuz the air con died. It has a good charge of R12 (had it checked by my mechanic). The compressor engages and all and seems to act normal, but he said that something inside must be shot, because air was cooled by like 10 degrees, even though the charge was good. I'd like to go ahead and replace some stuff.
I'll obtain a new/rebuilt compressor and that canister (the dryer?). Is there anything else I need to replace besides the O rings? Does the little filter by the power steering pump need to be replaced? My condenser should still be good and not rusted out since this is a Texas truck anyway. I'm going to "flush" the system myself with some compressed air and a solvent I haven't thought of yet. I'll have my mechanic refill it with R12 (I still have some ).
Since I still have a good charge, I'll have a shop evacuate the system. Is it true that they should pay/credit me, since I'm essentially giving them my very valueable R12?
Thanks guys. I probably should have searched, but I had to say I'm back.
