    compressor, or expansion, or???

    well I think the compressor is toast now. just went to recheck it, after sitting all night, first connect gauges, engine still off, I'm at about 90/90. Turn it on, front AC only, 120/120-130ish when compressor kicks in, low pegs high, high goes from 100 to 125ish

    compressor, or expansion, or???

    Yes, compressor is spinning the whole time. If i turn rear AC off, only run front I can get it to cycle off/on First readings were 28/150 83F outside, running idle, hot engine after 20-30min sitting the readings were 100/125

    compressor, or expansion, or???

    Think my compressor is dying or could it just be something else? Gauges looked normal for 83F outside, but getting 70ish from the vents. Hissing in the rear ac area. After tinkering with my drawing for 20min or so, now my low is 110+ high is 120 ish. It's been idling the whole time. I took...

    Limited Slip issue???

    So lately I've noticed a little weirdness, mostly just staring a turn from a stop, nothing loud or jerky; just what I assume is a tiny bit of slippage. Acellerate straight it's fine, take a corner, it's fine; just from most stops that are turning. It's a 00, 2WD, aprox 94k miles. Last diff...

    replacement Mirror Covers?

    So finally my 2nd mirror cover popped off today. Last time i was in a junk yard mirror covers were almost always missing; and if I could find one it wasn't for the heated/signal Eb mirrors I have (signal on the outside of the glass; not in the mirror). So is there an aftermarket plastic cover...

    00 5.4 recently long/slow to start

    I just want to know the right part# if it is the pump. In past experience sometimes these messages can take a while to get an answer, while other times its just minutes. I just want to be prepared so I can order the parts to fit my work schedule, if needed.

    00 5.4 recently long/slow to start

    So assuming it is the pump, is this the part I need to order? ie Has everything I would need to do a once & forget it job? DELPHI Part # HP10131 $125 or just a pump & strainer for $83 If I'm going through all that work, I think I should replace everything. (I have a 99 Ranger that the fuel...

    00 5.4 recently long/slow to start

    Thanks, I'll get a gauge soon. They rent at the chain stores? No running, just cranks for several seconds. While out yesterday at a store, come back out and it started, but quickly stalled, and was hard to restart. Stalled again. Finally 3rd attempt it started fine. Its has only done this once.

    00 5.4 recently long/slow to start

    So randomly (typically after sitting days) it takes 3-5x longer to fire. It's cranking strong, even changed the battery after a really cold day as its been problematic recently too, and 4-5 yrs old. Going to key on for a few seconds doesn't seem to help (thinking I need to re-build fuel...

    low hum from deep in the dash...?

    Yea, I just got some free time & started chasing it down. I finally found the same thing, replaced it & it seems to be fixed.

    low hum from deep in the dash...?

    I had a friend listen (he works at a garage; but think he's more auto body than mechanic). He thinks its the A/C. I thought he said compressor, but that's up front where the belt is; so what is the part in the rear, near/on the firewall? Could it be making this noise? If so, will a can or...

    low hum from deep in the dash...?

    I"d say its my ears too; but my wife said she heard it... I think for now I"ll just keep the radio & HVAC on, and not hear it. I'm sure it's the blower motor & it will wait until its -10 out to die on me...

    low hum from deep in the dash...?

    Looked around, couldn't find anything screaming It's me, it's me. I can not hear it outside at all, from above or below. It sounds like a fan or pump to me; (just having changed the MECS pump on my hybrid ie a water pump) it sounds similar. It does seem to change slightly when turning on...

    low hum from deep in the dash...?

    Just noticed this hum tonight after getting home from football game. It's a very low (quiet & frequency) 'hum'. Louder in the pass seat than the drivers. Similar to a speaker humming. I turned off all climate controls, and radio. No change It does seem to be a constant level, doesn't...
