Great.....guess I'll just ignore it till it gets worse. I know thats a bad idea, but when your in college then your lucky to be driving that new of a truck anyway.

I did both of mine in under 2 hours not including the time to evacuate the ac and recharge it, but I evatuated it at work the day before I did it and recharged it the day after. I did alot of research on here before I didnt it and pretty simple.

so i just watched the article 22 just to learn a little more..idk if any of you guys noticed..but on the passenger side valve cover, where the line comes from the valve cover up to the throttlebody/air box, that line is missing lol..its just a open port coming out of the head. when they go to the close ups for the sounds coming from that head you can see it.
