Thanks Greg.

Yea A/C is a must in the summer for me too. My A/C needs a new compressor & filter/drier on my 73 Galaxie. Until I get it fixed its parked. I'm going to take it to a shop & have an upgraded R134A unit put in. The York compressors are good but but there are more efficient compressors out there. I need to have the filter/drier updated because the OEM unit isn't made anymore & the filter has hoses to the compressor & evap. The hoses need to be cut & fittings installed so I can change out the filter later if needed. I want to have a filter installed that is easy to buy.

So you currently have that 440 AC right? Four windows at 40 mph?

Watched the grand kids in the pool this evening for two hours. It is amazing how much joy I get just watching them have fun.

We have no plans for the long weekend, except to get some sparklers for the grand kids and let them celebrate our nation's independence.

got a question for you folks. When I go to start Shakey some times the starter gives a loud whine. Other times she will start to turn over and then gives a whine. Starter going out?

Check the connections and all grounds. Be sure the battery cables are clean and tight as well. If all that is good then take it off, and run it to a parts house for testing.
