Re: 1986 C10 Project "Flashback"

I started the holiday weekend off with removing all the old AC stuff, leaking valve covers, air cleaner, and radiator. The evaporator was new so it was reused along with the hoses. New compressor, dryer, parallel flow condenser, blower motor, and new fan clutch were installed with the correct green O-rings. The system pulled down great and held vacuum at 29in overnight. I followed that up with new valve covers, air cleaner, and a little detail in the engine bay. Nothing over the top but my main goal was just clean and presentable. Any finally charged the system with 134a and quickly had 45 degree vent temps idling in the driveway on a humid 85 degree day. I should see 42-45 temps driving. This brings this stage to completion and should have the full truck finished this week.
