Re: 97 Eurovan running hot

Re: 97 Eurovan running hot
interesting point. I put the tranny cooler on as soon as I bought the van so I don't have a comparison to check it with prior to the installation. But a previous one I owned didn't seem to run hot.

You could approach “ Colorado camper van” for a whole new top. I did that

Re: Westfalia pop top
Hi Janet,
I heard some people change the struts for easier one and it fixes

If compressor is not running, What is the pressure ?
Check switch on top tank on fire wall pass side, pull plug and check, there should be voltage on one side and other side to compressor clutch.

Re: Diagnosing AC
