What did you do to your expedition today?

[toms89]

ac compressor removed and tightened the manifold bolt then replaced it on the motor. rented the vacuum pump and gauges and have it under about -25 hg (as low as the pump could pull it seems) will let it sit overnight and if it holds I will charge it. I did also find a leak. someone lost an o ring on the lower hose on the condenser I haven't touched that hose up to but lucky my aunt abandoned a car here not too long ago so I made use of an o ring from her car.

fingers crossed for cold ac tomorrow

Need heat here right now!! Hot in Bama??

not yet, highs in the mid 70s this week but it helps to knock out any kinks I may come across before I do need it. also if it does work today it means i wont have to run the heat in the middle of a rainy day just to clear the inside windows from fog.

alright! she took three 12 oz cans and I had to run out and get one more but they only had a 10 oz can. so I am at about 2.8lbs charged and the compressor stays kicked in at idle but kicks out for a few seconds when revved to about 2500 air is blowing cool thankfully!!

After 200K miles I finally installed a complete K&N cold air intake kit… Not just a filter. Haha She sounds good!

I replaced the driver side rear door actuator. What a PITA. Limited visibility in a very tight space to work "by feel". The dealer quoted me $317 for replacement installed. I got a new one for $29. Works great. 01 XLT.

Waiting on a new harmonic balancer bolt. So did all I could before it started raining - put all brackets on the front end, alternator, plug wires, hooked harnesses back up, etc.

for the past few days I've been hearing a rattle in the right rear in the third row area.. today I decided to look for it. i spent 30 mins cleaning the interior and getting my tools arranged and back in place after this weekends adventures with the ac repair... then when I go to reach over the right rear seat, it latches back in place.... turns out that was causing it all this time.

either way, everything is clean and the aircon is doing great especially since the compressor has more mileage than my 282k... I think it was about 330k on the donors odo? I can't remember..

I finally took the time to clean the engine bay after getting the open ac lines covered. I need to replace the throttle cover and battery fuse cover.. I stepped on them in the night while doing late night repairs when I worked 2nd still..

bonus: notice the different oil cap? I found the OE one in the radiator support behind the air pump relay when I did the fender/bumper replacement.. the po said he lost that right after he bought it back in '03

Looks good. What did you use to clean it?
