Nightflyr thank you so much for your input. some notes…
I have inspected the body and there only seems to be a bit of rust in the door jams where the first seal is. I have bought the sandpaper and the paint to remove the rust and touch up the metal to prevent rust.
When my grandfather had it he did use it as a truck and there are minor issues with the paint that I intend on doing a tempory fix until I can afford to have the entire truck stripped and all the imperfections fixed and painted.
As to the AC, I live in Miami and it’s absolutely necessary to have AC. I wonder if it’s cheaper to replace all the parts myself or to have a technician look at it and replace the parts that are bad. Keep in mind this truck is 22y/o and the rest of the AC is bound to need servicing. I have watched extensive videos on how to replace all the parts to the AC and I feel that I could replace all the components.thank you so so much! I will keep you posted on what I figure out when I take a closer look tonight. I truly appreciate all the help you have given me.
hey nightflyr, I want to start off by thanking you for your input. I do have a question about what you said. How do I go about looking for the sensor that has gone bad? Do I start with the EGR or PCV or MAF? Those are sensors that I have seen videos about. I know I’m a novice but I’m very willing to learn. Would it help if I switched out the serpentine belt?
If I remember correctly the movement of the Tensioner was within that range of movement. I will further investigate tonight when I get home.
