How did you fix your air vents? Common forum etiquette requires you to give the solution to a problem. We need closure....

Yes lots of people can help you, but not without knowing which year of which engine...

If you really don't want to tell us though (I can't sign an NDA from here and don't have clearance) you can check RockAuto.com

Classified info? I know what an NDA is. I've signed a few of them.

Got my XJ cooling down properly, seems to have just needed a good flush and water through the system. Running at 195 pretty decently.

NOW: Turned it on, making a god awful racket. Clicked on the AC and it went away. AC clutch? I cycled the AC 10 times to double check this. Is this going to be a huge *****? I just charged my AC. Can I just have a shop pull the 134 out and get my stuff rolling again? It's so loud again! Ugh.

Anybody know of a swivel seat that will work in an '01 XJ? My wife is sort of crippled and has threatened to leave me if I don't get a handle on this. I'd hate to see her go, but I'd really miss the Jeep!

The refrigerant charge should have nothing to do with a noise with the AC OFF. Sure the belt isn' too loose or another pulley/bearing isn't making the noise?

I want to remove my a/c system from my xj, but I want to leave the compressor. Is that do-able?
Its cold most of the time here, and I hate using a/c when its warm out.

Haven't redropped the belt, but it has a 2 week old alternator, and new idler pulley and belt. Only reason I suspect the AC is because when I turn the AC on, the clutch engages and the noise goes away. I turn the AC back off, and it immediately comes back. I don't really care about the AC, I just don't want that stuff to jam and throw my belt or something. Figured the charge wouldn't have anything to do with it, but who knows, not me!

Retighten the belt first. New belts tend to stretch after install. Make sure there is no more than 90° of turn at the longest point. Some say 1/2" of deflection. And the there's tools to measure.
