Since y'all are gettin' rid of your A/C, anybody got a compressor for a '90 2.3?

I need an A/C compressor for a '90 2.3. Anybody got one?

'90 2.3 LX. My A/C system has a leak. I thought it was the compressor but after reading this I may be wrong. I didn't know you could put stop leak in a A/C system. I should NOT put stop leak in & recharge with R134. I SHOULD convert it to R134 (install retro kit), have system purged &...

It is raining again today. Had to use the wipers for 15 minutes. They worked fine. Problem is definitely intermittent. Don't want to get stuck in a Monsoon anytime soon with no wipers...

Started raining, fired up the wipers. They worked for a while & then suddenly slowed down & then stopped! Drove in the rain squinting thru windshield. Not Fun!!! Parked car. Got back in hour later, still raining, fired up wipers, worked but very slow. 15 seconds later, wipers stopped & won't...

And installation cost for those components would be comparable to regular speaker install? After almost a year, the speakers sound great! If I had the $$$, I would go component...

Great site! It mentions that Ford does not consistently use the same wire configurations. Just great!! I checked the stock wiring section, the configuration listed does not match my config. However, I went to a 94-99 install wiring diagram & it seems to match my wire colours! Go figure...

The 12volt link is not working. My dash wires are colour coded (sitting in driver's seat): left front - blue w/white stripe and orange w/green stripe right front - green w/orange stripe and white w/lime stripe Does anyone know which are positive and which are negative? For the rears I...

I have bought but not installed the door speakers or the rear deck speakers yet. When I install the rear speakers I will buy the Ford wire connectors from BB or CC. I have only installed the dash speakers so far. You have a '98. I wonder how much wire colours have changed from 90 to 98? I...

'90 LX Coupe. 4 speaker system. Cut the dash speaker wires before I realized I didn't know which wire was + or -. Could someone please tell me what wires are + and - for both the dash and rear deck speakers? Before you go there, I already know about the speaker wire convertors for Ford...

I went with Infinitys. Not the components unfortunately. Everything on sale at Circuit City. 3.5" - 3002cf, $45 5.25" - 5002i, $38 (half price when buying another Infinity pair) 6x8" - 6802cf, $75 Will install soon. Anything will sound better than those 14 year old Ford speaks!

Components sound awesome. However, #1 cost and #4 installation difficulty would take a serious hit. Your point is well taken tho. How 'bout that 4 channel amp? Channel per speaker or does it not work like that? Thanks.

I don't know enough about stereos to know about 6 speakers working with a 4 channel amp. Would this be a problem? Does each channel go to each individual speaker? I was going to upgrade the speakers and then later get an amp/XM tuner and have them installed at the same time. I have a Pioneer...

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll keep 'em. BTW, great name "LXSTASY"!

What's the general consensus on the 3.5" dash speakers when upgrading? Keep them or get rid of them? If I keep them I would go with the straight aftermarket replacement, not the component option. Also, how do you remove the 3.5" dash speaker grill?

Sorry Freakintiger, I posted in both. I'm not a regular poster & wasn't sure which would get a good response. Ended up both posts got good responses so thanks to all!

Didn't you mention "dumb luck" before? Well, there ya' go! If I have the torque values I'll use 'em...

Can't hurt to torque them. At least you know you got it like the factory designed it...which is USUALLY a good thing.

Yeah, torque value! BTW, I broke 2 bits getting those muthers off! One of those bits was an impact version. Plus, lots of PB Blaster...wasn't the fun I thought I would have.

Thanks for the replies. I broke 2 Torx bits getting the bolts off...even after PB Blaster and 1 of the bits was an impact version!
