    Matching paint touch up

    Find low side AC port cap

    I have checked out Amazon and see set of 5 to 6 of High and Low for under $7 . Trouble is it looks like each high are the same size and each low are the same size. I could order and if the low don’t fit easy to return.

    Find low side AC port cap

    I understand what you are saying but $12 to mail a $2 to $3 part weighing maybe an oz isn’t right. You have a point, time looking does take time and never work out.

Got it removed and added 12oz of R134a. I now have cold air. My problem is finding a new Low Side cap. I have tried 2 (1 from Auto...

    Alternator replacement

    Thanks. I just bought a rebuilt at Autozone, Duralast 65 amp. Not the best but lifetime warranty. Looks like fairly straightforward removal and replacement other than how to put tension on the belt after installing the new alternator. I can’t see anywhere I can find to get any leverage with a...

    My alternator went out on my 71 Mustang Mach 1. The engine is currently a 351 Windsor 4 bbl carb. Originally came out of the plant with a 302 2 bbl with AC. I bought it with the 351 and it had a 2 bbl with adapter. I had the adapter removed and got a 4 bbl from Summit racing. The alternator on...
