That's fuel detonation creating the knock in the cold start. I'm sure the carburetor could use a thourough going through. There was no detonation I observed in the drive video that I felt or heard. As for the AC I don't know if it's operational as it would need a freon charge to get the compressor clutch to operate properly. Consider it an unknown.March 31st, 2026 at 6:07pm ESTacewert3 (0) 0does the A/C work?
