Ok, this has me kind of stumped.
97 FZJ with 306k. Just had the A/C completely overhauled (new compressor, dryer, charge, etc) at the local stealership because I'm just too busy with work to mess with it. Got it back 2 weeks ago and everything seemed fine.
The other day I go out to crank it up and it doesn't want to turn over. Battery is good (11mo old Optima Yellow Top) and I just replaced the starter 6 months ago.
I immediately think about the battery fusible link I've been meaning to get around to. I ordered one of those and swapped it out today.
It cranked...but kind of shuddered to life. As if it's not getting fuel. WTF. Never had that problem before.
Took it for a ride around the block and it tried to stall twice.
The real head-scratcher is that now my A/C doesn't blow cold anymore.
I'm not well-heeled in this truck enough to put together how a fuel problem (fuel pump filter? fuel pump?) could lead to the A/C suddenly not blowing cold so I was hoping someone here could possibly point me in the right direction.
Obviously I need to get this cranking/stuttering problem worked out in addition to the A/C problem that has to be somehow connected since they both popped up concurrently.
If it helps, I hooked up the OBD2 detector and zero codes detected.
Thanks in advance
