Another R4 bites the dust...
Was fooling with one of my cars steering today and figured I'd check out the AC. The compressor seemed quiet, had about 30 psi low side at idle (I don't have a full gauge set yet.) The condenser was warm, aux fan came on...
I took off down the road for a test. 50 deg vent temps with 90's outside. Looked promising. It ***** the bed The clutch bearing went out and probably destroyed it. What a POS. Good riddance to bad rubbish...

I may do that... Use a 508 instead of a 709...

I'm crossing my fingers on the R4 in my 1985 300D. Its a old Harrison compressor with a R12 sticker on it. System has R134 in it, and to be honest it does pretty good in the FL heat, compressor doesn't make any noise at all currently, however I have put less than 2K on it since I about it about a month ago.
