I have a pretty good idea the guy working on the car was not the best. When I bought it I noticed a lot of bad work that the PO had reciepts for, the indy he had was scary. in this case the spacers were missing and the bolts were grade 8 yellow bolts from home depot, and by the way appearently only 2 were needed. one of which was desperately hanging on the compressor as it swayed below the engine at 60 or so.
I looked at the diesel giant write up but I dont want to give all of the info they wanted for the freeze 12 test. I was just going to use the 12oz cans of 134 from Advance
