Re: Vintage Air heat test !

i had a problem with mine cooling at first when i charged it with cans
found out a friend had an ac machine that got it to cool correctly

my shake out trip was the 2011 hotrod power tour
104 in cocoa beach, valdosta was 105 as was birmingham, nashville and indy
it cooled great until i hit the road at high rpm the water pump was pushing hot water past the servo valve
i stopped in knoxville and thru a bypass hose on the water pump, ac worked great untill...
it rained coming out of indy all the way to muskegon where the temps dropped to 52
needless to say we froze on the trip home to detroit that night
i fixed it by reversing the hoses, i think i'll put a shutoff valve in a water line

i had tinted the big back window, had it retinted with limo blackout after the first hrpt
the limo tint helps a lot but it makes it impossible to see out the back window at night
