Good for you Smokey! Did you upgrade to a larger radiator and If not how
much hotter is the temperature gauge showing with the a/c on in traffic?
Did you run the 134a Freon?
I installed my Vintage Air a/c system two years ago but did an upgrade on
all their components so I didn't get the cost savings of ordering one of the
sure fit kits. I charged my system with the 134a and had my niece inside
the cab while I was charging the system. She came out of the cab just after
I finished adding the second can of Freon saying "It's too cold in their"!
Enjoy the Vintage Air !!
