[QUOTE="IgnoreMe, post: 6254413, member: 551352"] let me give you some advice on the a/c system with that truck (i have the same truck). you see the accumulator (next to that vacuum operated heater control valve that youre asking about...not sure if ford calls them that, but thats what it does, lets coolant into the heater core when you turn the heater on)? pull that foam off the accumulator...ill bet money that that thing is rusted out under there... your a/c doesnt work because your compressor cycles on and off continuously. your compressor cycles on and off because youre low on refrigerant. youre low on refrigerant because those ****ing accumulator rust out. new accumulator, new orifice tube, and a good evac and recharge will get you up and running. and that had almost nothing to do with your original question.
