I love it when
 
My 22 year old car is on a lift and the leaks I see are very minor and limited to four areas:

1) speedo plug on trans (replaced)
2) timing cover
3) valvecover gasket
4) differential

And none of them are leaving so much as a trace on the ground. :lol:

Of course the other leak is my goddam AC compressor. This is now #6 for the car (first lasted 1995-2014). All lines were replaced in '14 with the first new condenser...and all condensers since then have either leaked or screamed. This one is one day old now but holding up thus far :-? All of them were AC Delco, replaced under warranty. But still an inconvenience.

Defroster, yo. Plus 50% of the time I take it out I get hit with a monsoon and the top has to come up.

I deleted AC in my 94 formula.

Hated my life every day after that in the summer.

WTF did you guys do in the old days? hahaha

My Dakota has no AC. It doesn't even have those small airblaster windows like trucks usually did back then :(

I didn't know a condenser COULD scream, I thought the compressor did that

Been driving 35 years, and a lot of non-AC vehicles.

Compressor - I said it right the first time then had a brainfart in the next line.

I've always sourced parts like compressors from Arizona Mobile Air. A lot of the remans are complete garbage. If it says 'Four Seasons' on it run away.

Featherburner 05-09-2017 08:25 PM

Have you actually replaced the condenser?
