1995 Bronco AC Recharge 134a
Переглядів 1,1 тис.10 місяців тому
Hey guys! Welcome back to Pinky's Garage. Today we are recharging the AC system on a 1995 Ford Bronco. The orfice is clogged, however recharging it will be a good band-aid to get us by for a few months. We are using the Harbor Freight AC gauge tool and a can of 134a from your local auto parts store.
Hey, funny running into you again. I was thinking about doing this to mine, but wasn't too sure about how the 034 with meth bung install looked. I'd hate to have to replace my Racingline muffler, but after seeing your setup I think I'll avoid the 034 altogether. Since I have the DO88 charge pipe kit on mine, it comes with the same 1/8" NPT meth fitting on the charge pipe, near the boost sensor. I'm surprise your big turbo still takes the muffler since I know many are straight on that side of the compressor housing and the charge tubing just slips over it. Were you able to get a better seal on the dummy sensor?
Does this guide work on a 1970 vw beetle? Its a little older but it also has spark plugs 🧐
No
Cool video man Rob from autofab.
Thank you Rob!
Red first?? You always disconnect the negative terminal first😮
Oh no!
Aftermarket pcv/oil catch cans are utterly useless on these cars
Valid
Funny how you went through showing the removal of items and dropping a bolt/screw at the backside w/o ever addressing that. Could have just stated what to remove w/o showing how fast you could do it after rehearsing it 30 X.
What?
For the crankcase breather hose reinstall around minute 7ish, have you had any issues since install when driving around? Mine I could only wiggle on most of the way and that's with using a grease to even try and help fit onto. After a day or two of driving it's split right down the center and needing replacement.
No issues getting it on. Weird.
Did you have issues with the new Venturi PCV connector connecting fully on the turbo inlet. Mine is not clicking on no matter what I do. Is there a special pinch or squeeze to do?
Having the exact same issues.
No issues with it. Granted I have a DFG inlet.
I had to wiggle it quite a lot. Maybe not fitting well. I have a BMS elbow.
Great video. Thanks for your help! You're good at explaining and showing everything. Much appreciated! Truck's looking nice BTW. Helping my GF's neighbor do some work on his 1995 so this vid is invaluable to me.
Much love man!
What about the rubber fuel line on the other side of the filter? Instead of the original fuel line which needs that tool?
Hose Clamp!
Does the new pcv pipe release from the turbo elbow easily or is it like the stock one
Not near as bad as oem pcv
Next time close the red hose and let the blue suck the red hose liquid 😁👍🏻👍🏻👋🏻
oop
Do I need a special tool to remove the pulley? Thank you for your help
Nope.
I did it on my 2018 Atlas 2 weeks ago and had no issues whatsoever. Not sure why you need to pump the oil with that suction, when it has a drain plug. Unless 2023 is different. Same VR6 engine.
Had a 2018 a few years ago. Much easier. The belly pan on the newer ones is a pain. Suction is usually faster, easier, and cleaner.
What wheels and Specs are these?
Ultraforms. 19x8 +32 I think
where did you get your parts from? im looking to do something similar.
Fcp and shop dap
Why wouldn't you just put a new orifice tube in or clean the old one?
If you have the GFB DVX installed, you need to use the other boost tap point to the right of the 034 logo. The elbow fitting is then quite close to the turbo inlet pipe.
I don't envy trying to do that. Must be a pain.
I think I have the same problem with my 2001 Volvo Penta 4.3GL. I have the same two belt pulley. Did you have a part number for the complete water pump and pulley? If it is on Amazon it would be great. Many thanks for you posting this.
Yea it was an Amazon buy. Get the whole pulley and pump. I don’t know the part number
If you get a racingline catch can you won't have issues with it capturing oil in the catch can as they have a baffle plate to prevent it. Racingline should be the only catch can you use on these cars. I'm using it 2 years and never got a drop of oil in it.
this is mainly to have as close to oem setup that bulletproofs the pcv system and especially budget friendly, catch cans are hella expensive
@@TheShadowang1s what are cons getting a racing line or spulen (both with pcv plate) compare to this mk8 retrofit pcv?
Valid
Is this idea for only big turbo or would work for stock turbo too?
it works for stock too. if your oem pcv is failing this is a good upgrade.
what are cons getting a racing line or spulen (both with pcv plate) compare to this mk8 retrofit pcv? i have stage 2 mk7 R. street spirited only. which one should I get, racing line with pcv plate or this mk8 pcv?
Gotta question...My OCD won't let me replace stuff that ain't original or close it...Soooo, what material is that stuff on the firewall covering the heater hoses...It looks like a tar type foamy stuff almost like Plumbers putty, but it ain't Plumbers putty...Got any idea what that material is and where can I get some...??... Thanks a bunch...😊😊😊
Probably some sort of RTV
@@PinkysGarage ...Thanks...Will chx it out....
I STRANGELY EVEN THOUGHT THERE WERE V8 GAS AND DIESEL OPTIONS IN THESE!!!!!😭😭😭😭😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😪😪😪😪😪😪😪🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢 AND SADLY THE CROSS SPORT DID NOT GET THE 2018-20 FRONT
hey man where did you get that soft funnel with the hose in it?
AutoLine on Amazon. The manufacturer of the Smoke Machine sells it. 🤙🏼
Nylon tape too would be good for getting a good seal and tight fit for the fittings Not sure if you used that already
100%
Any Updates on how the retro fit been working for big turbo?
Still testing some things. Video coming soon
@@PinkysGaragehoping it goes well!
Comment section did not disappoint. 😂
Nope!
That bung is hard to get seated well...also TMD is easier with battery tray out as well.
Yes, you have to remove the tray. Even more so if your doing this install as you have to pre install the charge pipe and TMD together
U have link to heater core? If my AC blows cold, and then blows cool during the summer, does this heater core have anything to do with it?
Just wait until your 50k service. It's $1300 at the dealer.
She'll never see the inside of a dealer again haha
I would definitely be cutting an oil service access hole in the belly pan for future changes. That’s insane. They need to do like BMW and have flaps for drain plug and filter access.
Amen!
Great video!
Did you reuse all the old bolts?
Yes haha... shhhhh
Did your clutch pedal get hard?
Great video, but cleaning the gearbox with the driveshaft flanges out is a dumb idea. How much debris and water did you get inside the gearbox?
Even on my 2018 the process hasn't changed. Pretty standard VW oil change process. You have a German-made car, get used to buying unusual tools. I have many sockets and tools from owning BMW's, Audis and VWs.
Most cars today all require some special tool for something. It's just that VW was earlier with this shit.
It's the underbody engine cover that takes forever to remove and install, total of 14 screws. The actual oil change and filter is easy. Also, +1 on the ramps suggestion.
All of that for an extra .1 mpg on the window sticker
This video is hilarious 😂
😪😪😪😪
Indeed
Same concept for boost pressure test? How do you prevent air escaping from the PCV breather hose coming off the PCV?
Many ways to go about it. On just a basic smoke test I don't find it completely necessary. I found that a rag or paper towel on a cap of PB Blaster, or Brake Cleaner works quite well to pressurize the system.
I like what you did. You used the VW parts bin, plus you have a two door GTI, not the unwanted four-door they have now. VW should make a two door version as an option like they do in Europe. Plus, also bring back the VR6 back as an option for enthusiasts like me who still love and want the VR6 engine. Owned an MK4 R32 😢 and lost it to a flood 😢. Nice video.
The VR isn't coming back in the U.S. Due to rising fuel efficiency requirements by the Government, and increasing smog equipment regulations, it's just not coming back.
I honestly don't see the point in going bigger then this set up, with some high temp fluid you'll never have brake fade.
Dude thank you. Mine just started doing this about 2 weeks ago.
Cant wait to see it at caffeine & octane!!!
Believe me.. This is better than my VW Phaeton v8😅
But that’s cool at least 😂
At 2:26 you mention tweeter wires. Where did you mount them?
Screw in A pillar. Tweeter had a slot for it
20 mins it takes me to change .. its pretty simple and i love it ! You got this!
SADLY WHENEVER I SEE THIS INCLUDING BOTH TRAFFIC AND IMAGES ONLINE I CATCH WAY TOO MUCH 2ND GEN AMAROK CUES IN THEM ESPECIALLY THIS STYLE (2021-23) NOW EVEN THOUGH NOT THAT CLOSE THEY LOOK NOTHING ALIKE APART FROM THE HEADLIGHT DESIGN MAYBE(?)

OH AND THE ATLAS HAS 5 LUGS WHILE THE 2ND GEN AMAROK HAS 6
VW really couldve mounted the oil filter housing on top of the engine like theire other models but they probably intentionally made it this way so you get frustrated and go to the dealer.
It makes no since. All other models have a union off the water pump that goes into the oil cooler, then the filter.
There are so many reasons I love my Ford Crown Vics and Mercury Grand Marquis. Doing an oil change is one of them. They actually have frames. Chock one of the rear wheels, use a floor jack under the frame about a foot behind the front tire on left side, jack it up till you can get under it, put a jackstand next to the floor jack, put a drain pan under the oil pan, remove the 16mm bolt and let it drain. While it's draining, slide forward, put another pan under the filter, take a strap wrench and unscrew it, remove it, put it in the pan, and let the oil drain out of where the filter was. Use brake cleaner and clean off the flange where the filter was, install new filter, clean drain plug and reinstall it, remove jackstand and lower car, pour in 6 qts. of 10w30, All done. 15 minutes if you take your time.
Crown Vics are goated
OFF-TOPIC!!!!😪😪😪😪😪😪
Apparently these youngsters are spoiled thinking they should just be able to suck the oil out. We always had to crawl under the car lol. Though I do love my 2019 GTI, suck the oil out and the filter housing is right on top.
Youngsters unite!
