I fully support the R134 upgrade because it's invisible. :) I'd love some help with my A/C. Now that I replaced that hacked up coolant hose, I can actually get a belt on it and start testing. As far as my power situation is concerned, I have to check the dizzy and clean it out still. Another big storm is on the way so it won't happen today. :( I did replace the O2 sensor. No change, ECU is still nutty as a junebug. The ECU does recognize when the sensor is unplugged, it goes straight to 30 degrees. I have no valve clatter at top speeds/RPM's. Someone posted the voltage that the O2 sensor should put out when engine is properly adjusted. Please re-send that info. I can get a voltmeter on it and check. One of my brand-new tires' sidewall was slashed by debris during the storm last night. I'm off to the tire shop. They just finished mounting the new one, and my other last tire that I busted free a few weeks ago. --- In DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "content22207" <brobertson@xxxx> wrote: > Drove #5939 from Philadelphia to DC on beautiful cloudless July > afternoon with no A/C and no working side windows.
