I bought an eighty nine about three months ago. I have read a lot of posts about cleaning the area between condenser and radiator. My engine tenmps run at ambient air plus 100 or slightly lower on hwy and usually max out at 215 in traffic unless it's 95 or more. These stay about the same whether ac is off or on. I had the front end up yesterday to do a brake job and engine flush and took a look at the radiator. I did not see any condenser at all in front of the radiator, but I could see the entire front of the radiator from underneath. There wasn't any debris there but if there was I could have pulled it out with my hands in a couple of minutes. Could the previous owner done relocated the condenser somewhere or was I looking in the wrong place. The AC works great. Next project is TB rebuild. Hope to get started today. Good driving
