No worries John

I think the R134a and the Regular windshield are going against me.

I need to get he stuff Craig used in his tunnel to help too, since I will be pulling the trans this winter..

I just hope it is a direct fit like the website claims

Replace the rubber shift boot under the leather cover and that problem will go away

I am sorry to say.. No, I have not had a chance to do anything.

However, the condenser is correct for our cars and is a parallel flow.

Talking to a couple refrigeration guys at work, the parallel flow condenser will help efficiency, but I decided to wait until I got a new compressor as well and do it all at once. I think my Compressor is partially working. Plus I have a 2nd grader so I volunteer for his cub scouts (Asst. Den leader) and help with his Soccer team too..

I will get to it though

What are the details on the condenser? Do you have a brand and part number?
