It's not I was going to run into anything!
My son said the same thing.....but when dad is 80 years old and determined to move things....he is going to move things. Tryiing to keep him from killing himself, time was of the essence, and it was my oldest son's day off. Wasn't much choice. Hopefully parts from LMC will arrive in the next day or two and I can get it all back together!
And AF ratio was in the high "normal" range to rich most of the time. Wonder if filling with ghas with no ethanol has anything to do with that? And it was about $0.30 cheaper in Oklahoma....strange...

After buying a AC valve repair kit due to air sucking into system while attempting to oull vacuum, I discovered that they are not schrader type valves. They are little rubber ***** to make a check valve. So system will suck air from uncapped valve.
Purged and cleaned system, charged with 134a and oil charge, and now I have cold a** air in the Ram!
And I washed a thick layer of Oklahoma sand off from yesterday's activities.

Today I got more annoyed with the hard to start issue I have been having with the truck. It takes a good 5 seconds of cranking to catch and slowly sputter to life now. After that it seems to run okay, but I hope that the new pickup coil I ordered from rock auto shows up tomorrow, and I also hope that it does the trick.
Also I hit 700 miles on my truck since the transmission replacement and all around overhaul, Which means my Kevlar clutch is finally broken in.
