Hello everyone,i am new here. I just traded my 67 for a 69.
the 69 has AC that doesent work. the car is all restored,so I had
the Freon changed to the new Freon. the POA valve froze up ,I was
told to get a new one. I looked into it and found out I should get this
conversion valve so I got one. now what is the secret to getting that
valve unhooked and out of there. there is no room for the large
wrenches needed to loosen that thing up. I would appreciate any
help you could give me . no vents,no AC means its hot in this car.
its a 400 horse car. thank you. Jim
