Riots
Ya, Riggins and McCall, ID are two hot beds of radical dissention and don't even stop in Pollock if you value your life. A sad situation seized upon by outside agitators and looters for mayhem and thievery respectively. The inept response to the situation from the various law enforcement agencies can be viewed as either poor training, a lack of competent command and control, political interference, or a fear of more negative police work video; what ever the reasons, it has exacerbated the problem and embolden mob violence. Most of these riots are in cities/states with very restrictive gun laws: New York, California, Illinois, Washington D C, Seattle to name a few. The rioters/lotters know that they will not be met by armed citizens defending property so it's a debauchery of theft and destruction. When there are armed citizens about the hoodlums just move on as witnessed in Minneapolis, Dallas, and the town of Snohomish, Washington. Where are the leaders...NO JUSTICE- NO PEACE Maxine Waters, Reverend Jesse Jackson, Illhan Omar, Reverend Al Sharpton, Reverend Louis Farrakhan, and one knee Colin Kaepernick to name a few. They have been silent and missing to quell the uprisings. It seems the only time you see them is when it's to divide and not bring together. Only Atlanta's Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms has steeped up and taken a leadership roll. She has set an example that other community leaders should follow.

I'm glad to hear those mods are working for you. I have a couple more I've been thinking about but haven't written them up yet. A stage two. Below is an excerpt from an article I wrote about the Ram Second Gen. Repairing A/C system I am not going to tell you how to change a part but give some helpful hints to avoid the pitfalls. Have all the parts and tools on hand ready to go. The faster you open and close the system the less of a moisture problem. If you have to purge the refrigerant from the system and it can’t be captured, crack open the low and high side valves. If the valves are opened to much refrigerant oil will be forced out by the escaping 134A. You won’t know how much is lost and it makes a mess. If you are replacing the compressor due to a catastrophic failure replace the orifice tube, accumulator and also the condenser. A lot of debris can get stuck in the tubes of the condenser and flushing may not clear it out. The cost of an aftermarket one is cheap and you are not worried “did I get it all out”. You will need to drain the oil out of the old compressor into the measuring cup and make note of the amount. Discard old oil. Now, drain the oil out of the new compressor then add the amount, in fresh oil, that was drained from the old compressor plus 2oz for the new accumulator and 1oz for the new condenser to the new compressor. Always replace the o-rings when working on an open system. They are a possible point of future leakage, and it’s cheap and easy to do. All O-rings need to be coated with A/C mineral oil NOT PAG oil. PAG oil is hydroscopic and will cause corrosion on the outside of the hose fittings and O-rings. When evacuating the system let the vacuum pump run for at least an hour, the longer the better. This is turning any liquid water into a vapor by causing water to boil. Water will boil at 70°F when the vacuum is at or greater than 29.18inHg. The vapor has to make its way out of the system to the low and high side ports. This is why it takes so long to evacuate the system. When done evacuating the system close the valves on the A/C gauge manifold and wait. If the gauges move then there is still a large leak in the system. A small leak cannot be found this way because only 15psi is being exerted inward when the system normally runs with a static pressure of 80+psi and a running high side pressure of 170+psi pushing out. When first adding 134A to the system from a single use 12oz can the low side pressure will jump up to 60+psi and then come down, depending how much refrigerant is in the system, to 20-45psi. The can will also become cold due to the pressure drop in the can and the refrigerant boiling. When the can is no longer cool or cold there is no more refrigerant in the can or going into the system. To expedite the charging time jumper the plug for the low pressure switch this will keep the compressor clutch from cycling off. The refrigerant will enter the system faster when the can of 134A is placed in a container of warm water. The 134A turns to a gas in the can faster due to the heat of the warm water. Only 134A in its gas state should enter the system, adding liquid 134A before the compressor can destroy it. The A/C system requires 32oz of 134A for a full charge. When using a single use 12oz can you’ll need 3 cans. After adding 2 cans (which is 24oz) weigh the third can on the kitchen scale and make note of the weight. When adding the remaining 8oz (2/3 of the can) check the weight of the can occasionally. When the can is 8oz lighter you’re done.- Transmission heat shield

I bought one last month at 1-800-Radiator & A/C part number H-6317 for $30.00. or https://www.autozone.com/cooling-heating-and-climate-control/a-c-hose-assembly/four-seasons-a-c-orifice-tube-56828/901879_621250_2051 It's doing great. Good firm shifts up and down even with torque convertor locked up. @Mopar1973Man said " I've rode in @IBMobile truck with 4:10 gears and 245s tires that is a quick truck. Then with @Dynamic built transmission very impressive power."- AC Replacement
It's good that you're replacing the condenser, it gets full of crud, the metering orifice, crud also, and the accumulator. The metering orifice is crimped in the A/C pipe that goes between the condenser and accumulator, behind the right battery, so the whole pipe has to be replaced.. That leaves only the evaporator and 2 hoses to back flush. You can get a loaner A/C flush kit from AutoZone and buy a quart of flushing solvent. Go easy with the solvent, you can blow through it fast, and just put into the container the amount you want to use to flush that particular part. https://www.autozone.com/tools-and-equipment/loan-a-tools/air-conditioning-loaner-rental-tools- Moving to almost the great white north.

If had other car makes do this and it was the key fob but I think @JAG1 had something like this happen on one of his trucks and it was switch. One way to tell if it's the fob or lock cylinder switch is to leave the fob at home the next time you drive the truck. If it still does it then it's the lock cylinder switch; if not then it be the fob.- Tach
