    Hey all, have a 1998 3.8 with a A/c that wasn't blowing cold. Put the recommended 34oz of r134 in and while I was doing so I noticed the compressor finally kick on but then after about 10 seconds it starts to cycle. Now when I first start the engine with the A/C on full, after a moment the...

    My car's A/C compressor clutch doesn't engage at all. After getting it checked at a workshop, there is no current to the low pressure switch on the compressor. When the clutch is run directly off the battery, the compressor works. What could the problem be? Please help me, it is very urgent. I...

    My car is a 2005 GT with 45k miles. Turned on my A/C cruising at 50 MPH while in a bend and the car stalled out! The AC had felt warm the previous use. Started back up with AC OFF, but now there is a grinding noise in AC Compressor area. OK, What did I break? and how much is this gonna...

    I'm looking to purchase a 67 Cougar which we all know is the mustangs cousin and share alot of the same components. The seller has stated that the compressor works just needs some freon in it. However just to make sure how would I go on about checking the compressor to see if it actually does...

    Hi All, I replaced the serpentine belt and did a regular oil change on my V6 mustang and took it for a spin and everything seemed alright. Later during the day, when I was stuck in traffic, I turned on the A/C but it didn't seem to work. It was blowing warm air. Soon after I noticed that the...

    I have been reading through the posts all night (and most of yesterday, there are way too many of them lol) and decided to just ask my questions instead. First, I have a 1989 Fox Body Mustang 2.3L automatic transmission with a convertible top and a previous owner who obviously did not care...

    Hello Mustang Gods, I currently have an AC compressor that's deemed "bad" by a mechanic. He's wanting to charge me close to $900 to get everything in working order. All I want is my car to run. I don't even care about AC or have the funds for the replacement. Now is there a certain length of...

    I just bought a 1993 Ford Mustang LX with the 2.3 litre 4 cyl. engine.:bigthumbsup It runs like a champ after I got a new battery and alternator. So far I have about $800.00 invested in it total. Not bad for a daily driver. I am having some issues though. My AC compressor will not kick on. I...

    Hi, I'm new to the forum and was looking for some advice. I recently added refrigerant to my AC, and after doing so, I have noticed that when it idles, a strange grinding sound seems to be coming from the engine. I have done some research which leads me to believe it might be a problem with my...

    Hello Fellow Mustang Owners, I recently have purchased and tuned up a 1998 mustang 3.8L. The thing runs smooth considering it is above 10 years old. My only problem is as follows (have searched around for a bit and haven't found a solution): Engine cranks over and idles beautifully. I let the...

    I have a 2000 Mustang GT. When I turn on the A/C or defroster the car idles HORRIBLY (it even revs up and down by itself). Occasionally my car will stall, but not always.

    I have a 1996 V6 Mustang on which my AC compressor has died. I absolutely do not have the money to get a new compressor. I need to get a belt to bypass the Ac compressor but I cant find the right size. Does anyone know the size belt i need to do this?

    To do the job properly, after trying incorrectly 3 sets of coil spring compressors, I bought the correct tool to safely perform the job. The tool does not require an Impact Wrench, but an Open End and Box Wrench size1'1/4" and a 1/2" Open End Wrench. Detailed instructions were provided along...

    The bearing in my ac pulley went, so I replaced it with a brand new AC clutch pulley/armature ect. Now when the ac is on, each time the ac kicks in and grabs the outside armature that spins the compressor, it slaps itself together and makes a pretty noticeable metal on metal clicking/banging...

    Seeing as it is starting to get hotter around here, I'm trying to get my a/c going. I'm getting 12v to the compressor but it does not engage. Is this the sign of a worn a/c clutch or could it be something else?

    Hello, My mom's Mustang is on the fritz. The serpentine belt (drive belt) started making a loud noise yesterday. It's not a whining noise, as if something was loose. Its more akin to a rubbing sound, perhaps a windy-like roar? Here's what I know for sure. 1) The belt has some cracking in...
