Tks Ol'Blue

Info rec'd and sure is helpful

Thanks for the reply. Glad to be of help when/if I can.

Still workin good a week later.

A hot day for a good test.


Brain freezing icey cold.

Hello, ol"blue, if you have a moment, I have a 99 XJ sport and the low side is freezing up after running the ac for a bit, and sometimes there is condensation on the carpet. I am going to replace the low pressure cycle switch, but was looking for a way to clean the evap fins. I just do not know how to access/ and what to use.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Welcome to CF.
I'll send you a PM.

Thank you very much for the info.

Thanks for the reply. I'm glad to be of help when/if I can.

New evap and heater coil installed,

Added a couple of pics showing my special challenges.

First and second are the airbox tough nut on firewall behind engine block. The plastic pipe support bracket sure made removal harder. Had to rig a jig on a deep socket to assist.

Third and fourth are the console support bracket, which was broken before I began this job. Dealer wanted $133.48 for a new bracket, found one a local junk yard for $5. Had to pull it myself. No problem, vice paying well over a C note for new.

All in all, I'd do this job again. Don't think success would have been likely without yours and CF's assistance. Your manuals, the pics, and commentaries on this site are truly treasures for DIY XJ'ers.

That said, I don't recommend this job unless DIY'ers have focus, capability of applying due diligence, time, and backup transportation while this job is in progress. Took this newbie a full two days to complete.

Tks again/high fives, and happy trails to Ol"Blue/CF, hobiecat
