ac problem

Well, I finally caught the monkey.....my ac would only work hen I was moving, when I stopped the ac would blow hot....I been to 2 Ford dealers and 1 ac specialist and they couldnt find the problem.....fast forward 6 months....decided to recheck everything myself for the last month, nothing...wireing was fine, etc .....so today I heard about a great ac master tech at Wayne Akers Ford and I went there......2 hours later ,he found the problem, I couldnt believe it.....one of my flexalite fans was pulling air and the other was pushing air, which caused turbulance and my compressors head pressure would go over 450 and turned the clutch off......and guess who wired it that way on this vendors board.....enough said....email me for details....now my ac blows like icycles and it feels like my hp has incresed with it.......this is a good day.......GO MIAMI HURRICANES!!!!!!

Running too good, D-Day.......played around friday , oblitterating my tires through 3rd gear, smoked out a whole parking lot and scared the chit out of everyone, absolutely zero traction, great feeling.....I got the Nittos drag radials now, so I ill see how they compare.....My new slicks and rims should be here this week, and I will see a rollcage installer this week too....I find it impossible for anyone to pull on me the way Im running, IMPOSSIBLE....Dan......a Big Thanks to ***** Figeroa ,Diablo Chips Master tuner-engineer and TC at Next Generation Motorsports of Ft Lauderdale, Fl.... They deserve all the accolades and credit, absolutely and positively......

Hi: Thinking about getting the Flex-a-lite fans did you have any problem mounting the intercooler jug back to it?
