lol im pretty sure the strap just stretched... thats the reason for the adjustable upper clevis to retighten as needed.
ac i think may be over charged, watching ac pressure in the hptuners scanner looks like pressure goes way up and compressor cycles, been messing with best way to run the ac to where it does freeze up the cabin but keeps going to the chiller...kinda pita. defroster on with heat goin to it seems to keep the inside coil dry and keep the compressor cooling the chiller so far, but i think after a while it dont like it
im going to keep an eye on it for now, not having any problems with overheating or anything, did just put the cabin heaters back in the loop possible some trapped air just making its way out ... i'll pull the plugs in another week and see if anything changes. i dont use a thermostat, i had planned on regulating with turning the pump on/off but need diff ecm basically... ive been looking at adding an inline thermostat since its been cold it doesnt like to warm up too much. with the electric pump is does some weird stuff for flow and low pressure/high pressure areas.
Maybe just run a restrictor in place of the thermostat.
You can cut the hoop off a thermostat and take the center out or use a washer or drill whatever size hole you want in a piece of metal and install it instead of the thermostat.
Also if you can get the nose of the truck higher than the rear, like backing into a ditch or a really steep driveway and just let it run for a while, that helps to purge the air out of the cooling system.
You probably already know all of this but just thought I would mention it, if nothing else maybe it will help someone else in the future.
