My uncle had a fully dressed 426 hemi for this dart on it and it didn't even hardly bounce! Thats about the heaviest gas engine you can get and it can hold more. Also rebuilt a bobcat diesel on it, but I think the hemi was heavier, lol.

This should be an easy one...
I asked this in a related thread, but no luck so far. This feels like a dumb question, but I cant find the answer...
"I recharged my AC yesterday because it just wasn't cold enough. Everything went fine and it is blowing cold. My question is about the compressor. Before I added a can of refrigerant the compressor would cycle on (3-5 seconds) then off (for about 1 second). Now the compressor constantly runs when AC/defrost is on.
So... should the compressor run constantly or cycle on/off?"

Can I just let out some pressure (like a tire) or is that unsafe? how can I rule out the pressure sensor?

can anyone recommend a good electric replacement fan? every time mine kicks-on, it sounds as if it's going to fall off.. seems like it's just a matter of time, so I'd better start looking. But, i'd like to replace the clutch driven with an electric that I can just throw on a switch, for when needed.
