Would I need this air switch? Advance list one for R12 and 134a. or can I just use the original.

you might need a new low pressure switch, I would ask them to check the difference between the two, if they are the same the old one would do, all the low pressure switch does it keep the compressor from turning on if the gas gets too low.


main thing is to get the right orifice for the orifice tube, my 89 BII had a white one, and when I changed it over to 134a, they gave me a red one.

okay. Do you know by chance how much freon the system takes.

 

[chrwilkins30]

While I was checking all the fluid under the hood I took off the service ports and the a/c has already been converted. There was no sticker on the old core support.

From the little I've used the XRC8, I really like it. Plus the price is nice.

Well. Had a clunking when stopping so I started searching the front end and took it apart and put it back together and go to take it for a test drive. Starts up just fine then starts running rough and shuts off. Go to restart and the fuel pump doesn't turn on. Always something! I'll have to look at it on Thursday. Can never get ahead...!!

EDIT: Worked just fine today.! Maybe the low fuel played a part. Ballistic battery box comes in tomorrow as well as tire carrier rear bumper.

how you take off the rear bumper when all the heads are so rusted that a socket wont grab and you cant fit a grinder in there to cut off the bolts.

No real updates on the b2 but I did get my first motorcycle.
Its a 81 cb750f with 900 body. Runs great and pulls great. I still need to go get my endorsement and plates and all that stuff.

just went through your whole thread and man your bronco has come a long way, hope you get your problem take care of, I had a similar problem but it ended up being that the jack asses at auto zone gave me the wrong break pads, they were very similar but it caused clanking and eventually they slipped out.

Update!

The truck has been down for a while. Pulled the rear shaft prob a month ago and haven't really done anything with it. I did notice the one u joint I got a AZ had a little play in it with only 150miles. prob where the vibration was coming from. Ended up ordering a brand new rear shaft CV shaft from Denny's Friday. (ETA:2 1/2 weeks)

I also got 5 sticks of 2x3x5ft rectangular 3/16wall for rock-sliders. (for FREE!!)

Once i get the dshaft and rear brake issue fixed, 35's are going on.

Cool, I was wondering if you ever figured put the vibration problem.
