I've always watched both sides to diagnose.
IMO the high side can be revealing. Not always, but I prefer to watch both.
I'm not sure that the thread size is R-12 ... it measures 3/8" peak to peak. Isn't r12 1/4"?
Sorry... it's been a while and I don't have any gauges, fittings, etc anymore for me ...

Re: Where is the High-Side Service Port Located?
You unscrew the high side pressure sensor, provide electric fan air flow to condenser and use an Acme thread R134a line on the Schraeder valve fitting where sensor was unscrewed.
Anybody care to tell elaborate on this?
I'd prefer an adapter rather than a hose...
anybody have a link for what ...

Re: DIY: 1995 850 AC Clutch Shim (With compressor in place)
Just finished doing my second one of these in the last week.
Alternate puller method:
should not need anything more than the three screws to thread into the clutch. As long as they are long enough, they will bottom out on the pulley and begin lifting the clutch.

Re: 96 855; factory rack or Thule?
Thanks all for the feedback.
Shame on Volvo for the pooling water with factory rails --- that would really irritate me.
Too bad, because I really prefer the look of the earlier/slimmer factory rails.
I guess I'll do what I've always done and get Thule feet and load bars.

96 855; factory rack or Thule?
I've got a 96 855R with no factory rack installed.
Should I piece together a factory rack and cross bars, or just piece together a complete Thule setup?
I tend to load down my roof racks at times. Is one stronger than the other?
I certainly like the look of the factory rack better, but if it ...

Re: Wanted: 850R or V70R
Searchtempest is pretty handy for Craigslist.
I know it's not close but there was a decent looking one in Chicago the other day. CL.
It seems like the ones east of the Rockies are less plentiful and more expensive with higher miles.
I've been looking off and on for 3 years. I got more aggressive ...
