just tried it again myself, worked fine with me copying and pasting the link from my post.
make sure you leave out those "[url]" brackets.

otherwise just go to the main page at www.cb-racing.com and navigate to the page about "Hidden AC unit info".

This symptom couldn't be the early signs of impending water pump failure could it?

I run my '04 like it's stolen, in 105 degree temps with the air on and never get past
180. I have even curled up the plastic license plate frame above the exhaust pipe!
