Video sucks

E miss you.where have you been.

wow at the dust . a vacuum cleaner hose under a bed sheet would have caught the dust.

i’m surprised that they didn’t clean the dirt off the fan.

How much would it be to just remove the original refrigerant on a unit that size.?

Hello Mr. Jim Pettinato why did the lessons stop for a long time I hope you are well.. Yasser

so its not risky to close off the suction line while the unit is running ? I've always been told other wise. does it depend on type of unit?

what could i do to make long harvest cycle besides hammer and screwdriver ??

mineral oil would stick to chlorine poe oil floats threw the system.sum times the oil can float and get stuck on top of the refrigerant in the reciever according to emerson. the cure was adding a bit of mineral oil so it could help push the poe oil.

digital controls are a weak link in the electrical system they can get damged in a short situation

The best teacher that I could ever find. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

The condensing unit needs turning round 💯 as the hot air is not going to escape any where Plus its hard to work on as its been fitted backwards 🤠 Fitted by cow bows 🤯😂😂😂

Why not have the fans draw the air through the coil

So wonderful lecture thoroughly explained thank you so much.

yea but aren't u adding air into the lines doing it like that

You should clean the fan before you put it back together! 😮 or your helper!

The coils can use a little love to 😊

The condensing unit needs utting out side with an housing as it will always struggle up there with the heat building up

Blocked condenser as its in a dusty environment so the condenser needs blowing out

When you adjustment on txv you should ut the top back on as your letting alot of hot air enter which will drive it up the wall plus you could add a sight glass in the future which would make easier to diagnose next time

Starved coil

The compressor sounds like it screaming loke its under pressure very loud tone

Hi. There Good stuff jim😊

Thank You Sir, Excellent Video!

Your the man!!!!

Teaching your apprentice right i had wrenches thrown at me. There are allot of alcoholics in HVAC-R

I need to know if this old compressor using ammonia or freon 12 or other things.

What fan motor he used to replace?

The system is low on refrigerant or has a plugged drier. Sight glass not supposed to flash in low ambient. It’s flashing because refrigerant is stacking in condenser to keep up head pressure and there isn’t enough liquid in receiver. Clear glass and add an extra #. That’s what I would do.

I thought semi compressors are better why would you down grade?

How are you getting the TD?

Can you please tell me the what the the super heat should be for freezer and cooler ? 8-12 for freezer and 15 for cooler ?

where is this guy now?

Don't yah love the dull zip screws.

A very helpful tip to extend the life of the compressor is to add 50ml of water to the compressor before regassing. This will cool the compressor

I have a GE condenser motor that keeps stopping or spinning very slowly on a Kenmore older frig. Great idea as i was going to remove the metal cap to oil the bearing but I like your idea if i can find my awl. I am having trouble locating a replacement motor if you have any ideas where to buy that would be great. My motor is basically all metal design, like yours, rather then these cheap plastic replacements... Phil Jersey Shore Area

Can anyone tell what happened to Jim all I see are 10 year old videos?

I love these old Refrigeration mechanical rooms from these old mom and pop stores I’ve managed to rescue over 12 of these belt drive condensers over the years , I love them !

señor !! what happen with you ?? are you got out of business !! i used to love you videos

Super Work. Hallo from Germany...

Thank you Jim

I wonder if Frigidaire built any belt-drive walk-in cooler refrigeration units? The A-6 swashplate compressor would had worked well for that.

whhhaaattt? how are you able to work without a van full of packout? did people really have to work like this back in ancient times? looks like something out of the flintstones.

19:57 - Tightening a seized nut before loosening it makes it easer to remove. If you hadn’t said anything I would have thought you did it on purpose!

10:26 - Just for everyone’s benefit, the dimple maker on your crimps are for bare connectors only. Insulated connectors are crimped with the oval part of your crimps (just sayin’). Thanks for sharing your work techniques.

Should I first clear the sight glass then adjust the txv ?

hi, is this compressor an inverter technology?

شكرا

Must be the reason my coil keep icing up
