I added the proper PAG and r134 only when I replaced the compressor and dryer last summer (with all new associated o-rings). I don't see any oil residue anywhere obvious. Unless the dye is in either of those I guess there isn't any. It pulled great vacuum last summer and blew super cold for...
To be clear, with no voltage to the compressor the clutch does not lock the pulley to the compressor. When I apply voltage, the clutch locks the pulley to the compressor. Thus when I spin the pulley by hand, the compressor also turns.
I certainly hope a 1 year old Denso compressor isnt locked up but that seems about my luck with this truck. I'll try tonight after work. Thanks for the suggestions.
I will certainly check those, but do either of those explain not being able to engage the clutch manually or doing so causing the engine to almost die?
I replaced my AC compressor, dryer, belt, idler puller and fully recharged the system last summer. It worked great and blew almost too cold. I used either Denso or Toyota parts.
Jump to today, I tried the AC and it just blew warm air. I got home and checked fuses. All were fine. I looked under...
Hangs too low, for what? I still run mine and I consider it a spare tire protector and rear slider. So what, it bangs on things. I have gone everywhere the guys with 35s and fancy 4x4labs rear bumpers have.
I ACTUALLY own the KO2s and have tested them numerous times in the mud.

I'm replacing my radiator, so while I am in there with the space I am going to do it. My 80 isn't my DD, and not even my 2nd or 3rd vehicle. But what it is is my camping, drive across the country to vacate in CO, General have fun play vehicle. I have the time and the inclination to keep it up...
Stuck with the first set of 285 ATs I put on. I got caught up in mud tires and wanting bigger. Went quickly to 255 Muds and then eventually back to 285 ATs. With a winch and lockers I just think Muds got me into more trouble than I really needed.
Just finished a trip from East Tennessee to Colorado to do some mountain biking. Turns out we spent a day exploring Tamichi Pass to Hancock Pass, to St. Elmo to rest the legs and turned out to be a great route. Nothing hard at all but the views and scenery was awesome. Spent the entire trip...
I went last year for the first time and I can not suggest the Moab Trail Guide book enough. Just ask for it in town. They are everywhere. Very well written and will help to ease nerves if you are alone as I was. I did Fins and Things and did all the "harder" lines. That rock is so grippy and if...
Yet another over priced Land Cruiser accessory built on a scale to ensure a high price tag. Some people just have too much money. I'll stick with my DIY rack held on with inferior hose clamps. By the way, my weak 80 brakes are way more of a family safety concern than some 1 lb rack held on with...
look inside of them... It is a honeycomb and light should be able to pass through.
I had my dual cats replaced with a single and a new muffler installed a local shop for a couple hundred bucks. Easy.
