I'm basing it on flat rate #.s with some adjustments. Alldata shows : Compressor 1.1 Fan clutch:1.3 Accumulator: .6 Orifice: .6 Plus I'm supplying the flush solvent and whatever time, electricity to run my compressor to flush it. The pressure test, evac charge , adding oil and 32oz of my...

Ya I would too if it was all I was working on. I'm working A full day in the miserable heat with no cooling in our shop then going home and working on it. First day I evacuated what refrigerant was left in it and checked the orifice for contamination then drained about 4 gallons of coolant. Day...

I don't know what kind of price shopping he did..I adjusted the clutch gap about 5 years ago after several other " professional" shops couldn't figure it out. At that time I also showed him the front seal was leaking green ac oil out of it and told him to be prepared to replace the compressor in...

Yep! It's also lifted which makes working on it tougher. BTW I shortened my post.

AC jobs at home after work and on weekends. I'm thinking $100 per hour is more than fair. Pep boys and Firestone are nearly double that here and who knows who is doing the job.

Cams are hardened and the hardening is very thin. I don't think you did yourself any favors by sanding the hardness like that . But I'm no metallurgist.

We are with Costco. No tickets or accidents. Both over 50. Ours doubled in one month. We always paid $140 per month then suddenly it went to $280

Euro cars have been using the in pan oil level thing for many years. If it gets to the add mak a msg will pop up on the dash . You can also check the oil level on the dash. I still prefer a stick but since nobody opens the hood anyway why bother?

About what year is the engine? I remember that Ford went to roller cams in the v8's around 1986

Is that engine any different than one in a truck? The trucks are not eating cams with lowered zddp oils.

Before I knew better I would use this stuff. It's basically a moly grease. Never lost an engine although I did prefill the filter.

What happens if you blow a tire at that speed?

Find an old ATC 90 or 110. Those have a low range that will pull almost anything. I forgot about the 125m. That would work too

The dealer originally sent me ATF+4 and the pump screamed. Put the prestone stuff in it and it's been fine for over 100000 miles

FJ and the trooper take dex3. F250 takes type F Jeep has prestone power steering fluid in it

Well it's not a racecar. My wife is the typical female that slams on the brakes right before the stop light. Never any issues even with her driving.

No issues with our FJ. Rears are on their 3rd set of pads and the fronts are getting ready for a 3rd set,/. Driver error?

I don't mind working under my tree but I hate laying in the gravel. It's usually way too windy for an easy up unless you hang 100 lbs on each leg.

Good luck with that. My 02 wrangler has several computers on it. So unless you are driving a 72 nova computers will be in your car.

Oh like this?
