Well, the Mississippi hot weather is here, folks.
Not only did one of the three previous morons who owned this car convert the
AC system from Freon to the less efficient RC134A, but they did it on a black
car with a huge rear glass hatch and T-tops (and where the original OEM
factory T-top sunshades are is another mystery...). I was thinking of
tinting the T-tops but that would kind of ruin their effect at night.
I'll just pony up and get a reproduction set of the original sunshades (about
$60 bux from Year One or OEM). The fact that the car rolls down the
highway with the temperature needle pointing due south to 220 degrees also
bothers me (and can't be good for the AC system). She doesn't overheat
but I never have liked any of my cars to run that hot. Time for a 160 to
180 degree thermostat and maybe a PROM change if the ECM doesn't like the
cooler thermostat.
