So you guys will never guess what it was.....i picked up a couple cans of refrigerant today just on a hunch, dialed in my ac pressure guage and got a reading from the ac system....completely out of freon, charged system back up to spec and have been sitting here for close to an hour in close to 90 degree ambient temps and the Z has not even budged one dot on the coolant temperature gauge and oil temps have been staying below 200....so for those that run into the same problem i did, CHECK YOUR REFRIGERANT LEVELS!! Lol

Might want to have it checked. I've got over 100k miles on mine and have never refilled. If you had to fill, chances are it's leaking. Cause and effect.
