  1. Theres a place by me that will do it for $80. I need to decide if its worth replacing the accum/dryer and the orific(sp) tube first. Oh and make a determination on how much oil to put in it.
  2. Craig are you referencing my vehicle? Aj let me know when. It was replaced due to the front bearing coming apart. I have called 9 dealerships and asked countless people, all have stated that it has enough oil in it. My manual doesnt state how much oil , but does say it requires 1.9lbs of refrigerant. I did not replace anything but the compressor.
  3. I didnt 100% hate it. Its the real life Ali G.
  4. Real quick, I got it all back together and went to refill with the cans and gauge from auto store. The gauge is all over the place. I hook it up and it read empty I had a few ounces in an old can but not near enough to fill an entire empty system. I push the dispensing trigger for a quick sec and it reads full, no way. I go get a new can and gauge and hook it up. The gauge bounces from empty to too much as the clutch engages. I have never seen one do this. Now how do I get an accurate reading?
  5. The instructions state that the compressor contains 1.5oz of ice 32 lubricant. Do I need more? I also need 1.9lbs of r134. Am I safe to drive with only this amount of lubricant until I get it charged? The manual doesnt state lubricant capacity.
  6. The instructions are very vague. I ended up taking a bolt and threading it in then cutting off the head. I need to add oil but not sure how much. There was very little in the old one. Although it was a very nice shade of green. I have the new one in place and bolted down but I did not picked up oil yet. I hope they have some insight at the auto store in the morning. Theres 2 openings so does it matter which one the oil goes in? Aj I was just going to use the fill cans from the auto store, but how much to recharge? I need to at least get it going by noon tomorrow because my wife has to have it. Am I safe as long as it has just the oil at least until I can get freon in it?
  7. I am in the middle of replacing the ac compressor on my 02 bravada. the old compressor had a stud which the hose housing slipped onto and the had a nut that held it in place. All the new ones/ reman that the auto parts stores have, come with a cap which protects where the lines hook up and then a bolt holding that on. The problem is I cant get the old stud out and i am not sure if it is suppose to. But the bolt on the new one is just long enough to hold the temp protective cap and certainly isnt long enough to go into the compressor, allow for the hose housing to slide over and then the nut that holds the housing on. So my question is does the stud come out and go into the new one? If so how? Second, do I need to just pour in oil before connecting the lines back up? I hadnt planned on recharging it asap since its getting cold but I dont want to damage it by not doing it correctly.
  8. Leather requires a stronger motor and needs to be capable of handling a heavier needle if your doing alot of work.
  9. ABC gas service is the cheapest I have ever found.
  10. I took a guy to court when I was 19 and had been working for myself for a few years. A guy broke a contract by allowing other contractors on the job while lacquer I had just sprayed was drying. Needless to say the guy refused to pay me after sawdust became imbedded in the paint. The judge took one look at me and stated I looked to young to know what I was talking about and declined to hear my case. he then stated if the other guy had made a counter claim against me he would have awarded him damages. All without either said even making a statement.
  11. Looks good. I always thought those were cool looking cars.
  12. I have read the the video is fake and is sped up in alot of areas.
  13. This is one of those situations where nothing good would come from being honest. Its best to just say nothing in these situations when history is just that, and the lesson was already learned.
  14. Teach kids that anytime they get into any serious confrontation with an adult at school to contact you immediately before they discuss. My kids and the schools were fair warned that before discussing any disciplinary issues with my kids that they are to contact me first. I would file a complaint with the school superintendants office at which time state you are seeking a resolution to your issues, not merely making a complaint.
  15. I have had this for almost 16 years iirc. It could use some cleaning up since its been sitting in the shed for several of those years. The pic is not mine but is the same model other than the handle is different. Asking $50 or will trade this and my other items I have listed for a small welder or whatever. Just clearing some room. Its been used with all 3 of my kids so it shows some wear but still in good shape. http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d87/wnaplay/thumbnailCA7KWR3Y.jpg
  16. Did you get tina something she can drive with the kids?
  17. Are you taking care of the listing fees? Shipping? What about if someone wants to put reseves on stuff, those get kind of tricky if someone has something they want a certain price out of and it doesnt sell.
  18. Check with jasson on the board. He has one that I know he's been talking about selling.
  19. Take it to J and J auto upholstery. I have done a few, but its been a long time.
  20. John, despite whay Joe might have said, men dont need gynocologists.
  21. Sounds like they were getting a few drinks to loosen things up before the big xxx sausage throwdown.
  22. I have had this sitting in a box of parts for years. The link is not mine but shows the info. It has some scratches on the chrome but will shine up nice. It has about 6' of leads taped onto the wires with alligator clips on the ends. I cant remember what I used it for but I know I bought it back when I had the chevelle. Dont know what its worth so $50 OBO Not my ebay ad, just for reference. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/New-Auto-Meter-Pro-Comp-Chrome-Tachometer-8000-RPM-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem2eaf9fca8cQQitemZ200514980492QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories
