Well it's still not for sure but Vintage Air told me to pull the temperature probe out a little at a time untill it pulled down colder and it seems to work. I ran the engine at 1200 rpm with a big fan blowing on it and eased the probe out a little at a time untill it pulled down to 40 degrees, it kicks out at about 46. They thought maybe the probe was shoved into the evaperator core too far. I put a dab of silicone on it to hold it. Doing my first road trip since I did this, this coming weekend so we'll see.
