don't know what you're talking about. i'll check and see if it makes sense 
when i look...

interesting. i never checked. i know the fan goes on, but...i'm thinking the 
stress is just from the 134a itself, but this is a thought.

>Other idea is a coolant system flush,

did this w/ the a/c (needed to replace the condenser-->remove rad), used 
prestone flush.

it has a fairly new low temp 'stat. i guess it might not be opening enough, 
but i have no reason to suspect that. is this common?


>OK, How's that for some discussion points?
