Re: AC question: what's that "Oil can" popping sound when I turn on the AC?

JB, that is good to know -- normal sound.

How are things in Nashville? My brother is there, has some intense stories of the flooding. Take care...

I'm working my way into removing the dash today.

More photos on Flickr later this evening, I hope, including the dash out in one piece

As for the AC noise, I think what you're describing is the sound of the compressor cycling on/off?? At idle, with the AC on, mine clicks on and off every few seconds, and the idle speed of the engine is slightly affected every time. I was told this was totally normal for these trucks.
