on the fan clutch see if its oily in the front and see if its hard to turn after you drive it and get it hot....shut the motor off and see if it turns free or has drag on it....if it still got some drag when hot it should be ok....

And that I did! I am now getting 42 to 44 degrees out of the vents.

The fan clutch turns freely when hot with a slight drag.

I need to replace the vaccum diaphram under the hood and I need the spring for the flapper in the cowl. I kow I can get the diaphram through the catalog but anyone know where to get the spring? I know this is when you switch it ti the A/C inside selection but what is the difference and which is better to use?

Thanks all for the help especially Rick and Ole Dollor! Im gonna go pull the top off now!

Re: A/C cluth, compressor or 134 conversion???

congrats man....might want to pull tabs off on this one ....i am so glad you got her going...sounds like you may have had several problems....cold air is what its all about.....keep cool...happy trails...

max a/c is when the door opens, when its closed fresh outside air comes in, max a/c will be the coldest, outside fresh air is good for if some is smoking inside the cab, it takes longer to choke you up.......and if it on max a/c the smell from inside the cab gets recirculated through the evap coils. and could start stinking, unless you always smell really good...lol
