Nice 2 see 1st Class back STROLLIN

Good to see you back on the road

Hi Kurt, try putting your cooling fan on manual and see if the more sucks through. It brings the temperature colder again. If that is the case, you might have a clogged condenser cooler at night because there’s no sun beating on the front of the truck. Good luck I hope that works for you.

I've ALWAYZ slept BEST in the TRK than Anywhere else

Ahhh, Richmond Indiana. Driving from Buffalo NY to school, The blue arch between Indiana and Ohio and then seeing Richmond meant just one thing—just two more hours to go!

Such a beautiful sunset Kurt

Sounds like a condenser problem. With replacing the radiator the mechanic have to take off the condenser and put it back on. At the same time your fan had busted and threw pieces into your radiator it probably also caused damage to your condenser and the shop didn’t notice or didn’t bother to check but it’s common for that to happen and it seems to always happen at the wrong time. I always replace the condenser if the clutch fan blows and causes damage to the radiator. Very costly for the fan, radiator, coolant and the condenser.

A couple of things to check. Ground on the compressor, high and low pressure switches plugged in correctly. No bent pins on the switches. Expansion valve freezing up. Evaporator core freezing. It's been about 10 years since I worked on a KW a/c system. I remember them having an orfice tube and accumulator.(Silver can) See if it frost up. That would indicate that moisture was introduced into the system and not vacuumed out. When I worked on the large capacity a/c systems with the sleeper a/c I would vacuum for an hour or more.

I never attempted the adding Freon till my pickup needed it a month ago when it was 115°. I finally bought a can and it works like a champ. I’m an AC tech now.

Greetings 2 All of U

Safe Travels out there 😎👍🏾🙂🙏🏾📢📢📢📢📢📢📢🇺🇸🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊

It's good to see first class clean again and drive safe out there and see you next time

I am 73 years old and have lived in Indiana my entire life and the roads are horrible from any direction when you cross the state line you know it. It's the land of the simulated moon surface.

Kurt I got to tell you every time I look at first class I get so excited I love that truck I think I'm past my Prime now I'm I'm 60 years old I don't think I'll get to own a truck but I do love that truck right there hood and all

It is most likely a high pressure switch if the switch is bad it can cause the compressor not to kick on

Nuts about the AC. Your bills are brutal lately. The change is ominous. Luck be with you

I'm sorry Kurt it's like a driver can't catch a break it's one of those things with being an O/O but I know you will prevail you and first class. Have a safe trip and hope you can get it fixed soon. Btw next week the heat returns to most of the Midwest heads up ok!!!

Awesome video enjoyed it a lot.

Hi I -40 is terrible in N.C. I would use 85 , 40 and 19/23 west going home to parent's home in Andrews, N.C. They were I from. Just a good old mountain girl raised back in a mountain hollow about a 1/2 mile off the main road of 19/23 west. No afense but I hated when I would get behind a big truck going through Nantahala gorge. It is a narrow 2 lane road with the Nantahala river on one side and the mountain on the other. With the snaking curves that would set the back of your hair stand up if you wasn't use to driving that old road.It that way from the time you start up the mountain and through the gorge to you get to Andrews. I hope you never have to drive it in your truck. Cassie❤
