I finally put the new front coils on my Ranger. The lean remains!! I didn't see any difference in the springs I pulled off. I'm pretty close to stumped here!

It's not the only way to know - the amount of time it takes the system to equalize after the compressor is turned off can indicate if there's too much (or too little!) restriction. I wonder if there's a problem with the low side gauge reading... tools or technique

I used to use Toyota filters, but switched over to Supertech after hearing how nice they looked on here.

Does your Yukon have rear A/C?

Oh, I see. Temperature. That would explain it for sure.

How do you figure? 0psi low side and 250psi high side sounds like some compression to me. I am thinking clogged orifice tube makes sense, although I don't know why the low pressure switch isn't cutting off the compressor. How quickly do the pressures equalize after you shut it off? Low...

Jack up the arm a bit and wedge something in between the arm and knuckle to put some extra load on the ball joint. Impact if you can get the access.

I've only done one FWD clutch (probably won't do another, lol!) and to get the transmission in place, my brother-in-law muscled it into position while I put a couple bolts in... pretty quick and (for me) easy!

Pilot LX would be the choice for minimal bells and whistles

I think Kia had a recall a while back and part of the recall was to swap your dipstick with one that took 1/4 quart more oil.

Maybe it's because I don't drive much faster than 70, but I think my 2019 Accord Hybrid would be a great road trip car.

I sold a wrecked car last year for around $250 so $600 seems high to me.
