Unhappy So It's Getting to be Summer...

...and I wanted to check out that heater core bypass mod. Turns out my '02 CC does *NOT* have the vacuum valve in the heater hoses at all. I **swore** I looked at it a while back, but I must've been hallucinating.

What is the Ranger part (I seem to remember someone saying AutoZoo has it) you all use and where do you tap into vacuum to actuate it?? I've got two weeks before I get back to North Texas, and I want my AC as icy as it can be...

Man, I just did two trips down to Ft. Myers, and I picked up a CR@P LOAD of the "F" bugs on the way. But as of Memorial Day, they seemed to clear up a little north of Tampa. I haven't had my gauges in long, so I think I'm seeing around 650 at those speeds lately. Sound about right??

Don't worry -- I'm not heading that way any time soon. Had I known he was down there a few months ago, it may be a different story.....

BTW, wasn't there some discussion a while back about which vacuum line to tap into?? I just want it off for max, not any other setting...

Couldnt you just put a T fitting in the line and have it shut off coolant flow on A/C and max A/C My A/C acutally bloews really cold I thought but after seeing that mod and the cheap price I think im going to do this install as well. Id like it to shut coolant flow off on both settings though
