Put my muffler back duals on, with a lot of cutting and effort, they're in place. I'm not overly happy with the results. Some of the bends aren't like the ones I replaced and there is a couple spots where they clank against stuff. It was a little tough putting them in on the street in front of my place.

Tossed in a can of R-134A with subzero and stop leak. I have A/C again! Now to get a spray bottle with soapy water in it and see if I can find a leak. (hopefully it's small enough to not worry about until spring)

Nope, not having A/C when it's 97+ degrees outside is more important to me right now, haha.

Still getting 14-15 MPG city (lots of speeding up to 50 then stopping, sadly) prior to fixing the A/C. I'll let you know when this tank is done what kind of mileage I'm getting.
