    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission a/c questions

    A/C now working Well I finally got my a/c fixed. :D I had a hole in a line. It was the line that ran up beside the intercooler from the compressor. The new line has a piece of plastic there to keep this from happening again. I just went ahead and replaced all the lines and schrader valves and...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission a/c questions

    Thanks Dave, I checked every connection that I could see with soapy water and nothing. I even checked the test ports and the switch on the drier. Where is Tenafly and do they have a web site? My pressures are 40lbs on low side and 100lbs on high side. When the clutch engages, the low side...

(see post "a/c evaporator change") the a/c man checked for leaks and found nothing. the a/c blew about 35f and it was great. Parked the truck and the next morning no a/c. :mad: Now wtf! He did tell me the Hi side...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission a/c condensor change?

    :cool: I finished my evaporator replacement. Here is the story! I believe the total time in just the evap. replace was about 10 hours. I did other stuff as well and I started this not knowing how to get the dash off until after I started taking sh** off. (couple of hours wasted figuring that...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission a/c condensor change?

    orifice tube replacement I finished my evaporator core/accumulator replacement and was wondering about the orifice tube. Where is the thing at? Did I need to add any oil to the new components or will that be done when it is recharged?

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission a/c condensor change?

    Couple more questions! Do I need to drain the antifreeze? I assume the heater core comes completely undone or does it not? Dont want that stuff inside in the carpet. How do I drain the remaining freon from the system? I was told to do it at the high side fitting and do it real slow. I backed it...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission a/c condensor change?

    I ment to type relplacing the evaporator. I pulled out the dash along with the skin off my hands. It was a real nightmare until I found the two bolts behind the kick panels that allow the dash to rotate forward. I was trying to figure out how in the h*** they got all those screws underneath in...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission A/C acting up

    Mine did the same thing! I took it to the A/C repair shop and they said "the pressures are fine" and another one said the "pressures are low. " The shop that told me they were low looked everywhere underneathe the hood and found the leak. He said it was the evaporator core and now I am in the...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission a/c condensor change?

    Well I cant seem to find a manual anywhere. I guess I will start ripping stuff off and see what happens. The dash is already cracked pretty bad so I am not too concerned with the way it comes off. I will have to order another one anyway ($350). I will keep ya'll posted and ask some more...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission a/c condensor change?

    a/c evaporator change? I read some old post about changing out the condensor and would like to know what needs to come apart. I know the top half of the dash but what about the bottom or the steering column? I have seen some pics in archives with the entire inside of the truck taken apart and...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission A/C not working

    Well, I found out it was my evaporator core that was leaking. The mechanic put his sniffer to the hose that goes through the firewall and the thing started beeping real fast. now I am wondering if I should take it to a dealer or let him fix it. They quoted me $1050 + tax to fix it. He said...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission A/C not working

    My a/c stopped blowing cold air! The compressor cycles so I figured it was low on freon. I took the truck to A/C shop and had them check out the pressures. They said the pressures are fine but I should try replacing the orifice and drier. They also told me that moisture builds up in the lines...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission leaking transfer case fluid

    I appreciate all the great advice from everyone! I had a buddy under the truck while I drove the truck forward/reverse with the brake on. (He drives a Chevy so all the necessary safety precautions were taken. ) The axle rotates causing the yoke to slide in and out on the output shaft...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission leaking transfer case fluid

    I will try to explain this as best as I can so please bear with me! When I drive down the road everything seems fine until I make a turn at low speeds. I hear a creaking noise coming from under the truck. I search underneath and find that oil is on the underside the floor above the front...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Nv4500

    Since the plates are higher than the lowest point would it be better to elevate the rear to get the majority of the fluid out. Also is there anywhere else other than the dealer to get GL-4 fluid?
