    🥝✔️The great reduction in compressor size since the York/ Tecumsah/ SelectAire days with the modern Sanden units...this A/C system is really good.

    Great vid as always Joe... you were 100% correct with the lube on the O rings...this is important... also there isnt too many AC kits that keep the bay tidy... but thats the only downside...I think thats long forgotten in Summer when you are enjoying your sweet old skool ride in air conditioned comfort.. thanks for sharing

    Got one of those radiatrs for my old Demon. Pulled the original on out. I think the new one will fit 👍 It didn’t have A/C in it when I bought it new. Base model. Just ordered the A/C. While I clean up wires under the dash, I’ll just keep dry fitting it for all those hoses, vent, water & A/C and the wiring. Maybe I’ll get them put in by summer !!! When you get old, things take 2-3 times longer to get done. Nice looking overall job !!! I enjoy and learn a lot from many channels out here, especially you, & Ed, & 318willrun. I learn different things with Duddie !!!! Like wear extra gloves and protective glasses. 👍👍👍 Thanks for these videos, they help us !!! 👍 Wishing you and your family a great New Year !!!

    Joe, does that ac compressor use the refrigerant as the lubrication for the rotating parts in the compressor?
    If so, wouldn't you have to remove the accessory drive belt to test drive if there is no refrigerant?

    • @JustMoparJoe
      @JustMoparJoe  Рік тому +2

      Thanks for asking. The compressor is quoted as being full of oil when shipped. It can only be mounted upright or 90 degrees from upright. The clutch doesn’t engage until the wire is energized. It should free wheel like an idler until then.

      My younger son's first Boy Scout summer camp was in Mena. We had a great time but I've never sweat so much in my life! Amazingly few mosquitos - maybe was all those spiders that hung on my mosquito net all night long... ha ha.. Houston is no joke either, I usually carry an extra change of clothes with me driving around... but from that one experience Mena was way more humid.

    Hi Joe, thank you for the video.
    I have a 72 Cuda and I was told you can hook up the AC pressure control switch to make the electric fans come on when the air conditioner is turned on.
    Is this true and how is it done?

    • @JustMoparJoe
      @JustMoparJoe  10 місяців тому

      In a multifan system,or with a dual speed fan, you’d connect off the switch to activate a fan relay. The relay would supply the fan power, and the switch would supply the signal to power the relay.

    • @JustMoparJoe
      @JustMoparJoe  10 місяців тому

      Another answer would be to use a fan relay kit with a temperature probe to send signal. You may need all fans operating when it’s 95 out, even with the air conditioner off

    Quick question, does the kit include a carb idle solenoid to bump up the idle when under load at idle?

    • @JustMoparJoe
      @JustMoparJoe  Рік тому +1

      No sir. I would imagine adapting a solenoid from the late 80’s trucks wouldn’t be too hard. This car only has a slight cam. Shouldn’t be too bad
