That evaporator must be taller than it looks, I kept waiting for you to set the table on 🔥

Thanks for being us along! I agree with the underground hair cutter! I need it too! Nice Job! 👍

Gave myself the buzz cut with #1 guard in the yard back in March and used the leaf blower to shake it off... grew out pretty good!

Last time i ordered up a new accumulator for a true prep table, the bottom wasn't completely crimped or soldered shut. Could see daylight through it 🤣😆🤣😆🤣Such a pain to replace the evap and accumulator, can never get them to fit perfectly without screwing up the sheet metal. Good job bro. Glad to see you still rocking the facemask. No one here in Illinois seems to give a rip about safety with the covid anymore. I feel defeated wearing mine when no one else wears theirs.

Great video. Good job. Thanks

[@TheLenaweeTrekker]

In every vehicle I ever owned that had A/C..., I mean I plead the fifth😉 I just finished a TUC27 here in Westland. Set at #1 the evaporator coil was freezing up. Replaced the cold control and now it's behaving real nice again. Cut in is a little high, but I was told to not rewire the True evaporator fans any more🤨😠

[@lee-johnson]

Finally got my hair cut yesterday! In NC you have to ware a mask, but they are open as of last week. Go ahead and start your dreadlocks Dave

[@frankstalteri972]

Yeah I also abandoned the accumulator because it didn't come with my new evaporator. Also ordered a cap tube cutter. I was using the file method for cutting cap tubes. Yes to screw the new normal. Good job

[@NorCal-refrigeration]

Right on Frank

[@FireandFrostHVAC]

I do exactly the same procedure with my manifold and the vacuum pump - pull out the contaminants while vacuuming the system. Great video Dave, thanks! Btw, you’re starting to look like Sammy Hagar with the hair... I’m starting to look like Dave Grohl... 🤣

[@socalcasedog]

Ive run my temp gauge a few times out here during the hot part of summer....always nice when its 120* out and the truck AC is running 48* at idle

[@NorCal-refrigeration]

That is a good feeling.

[@patsteck8532]

If there was 1 cooler mfg I despised working on in my 17+ years doing commercial refrigeration it was "True" .I have done this repair on this model more than once. R-12 & R-134a. a good tech with normal brazing skills could make the connections in the box.

[@MrHVAC503]

I just insulated the suction line, accumulator, and expansion line (past the metering device) all with 1/2” foam lineset insulation & 557 Duct tape... 2004 Silverado LoL

[@FlyEaglesFly19111]

Good stuff.. the refer man is knocked dead again. Hair cut.. no way grow it to the knees..dont be a quitter..lol. be safe have a great night brother Dave.

[@TheVinnyt63]

Astro van brake light illuminated, I stick my digi down the A/C vent all the time bro!

[@NorCal-refrigeration]

ABS module is bad. But the van runs great.

[@uxwbill]

Oh sure, I keep my standalone temp probes in the air vents on my truck. Helps keep 'em from wandering off, unless I launch it too hard. I will probably never find myself replacing an evaporator in a True make up table, but at least now I have some idea what's involved.

[@scottk0623]

Looks like it’s ready to loose a caster wheel too. My tubing cutter goes around as few times as possible, I got shit to do lol. I broke the door off my VP-85, I called Field Piece to order a replacement door and they told me no problem and shipped that day and didn’t charge me. A standup company. You need a Flobee for your hair.

I cut that suction accumulator on reach ins too. Those things tend to leak all the time.

Yeah Dave I do that also and also with the thermistors 🤣

[@wasimedoo7994]

You guys get everything to replace for me I will have to clean up and repair that evoparator

Yup I do in both my work truck and personal car

Hi Dave, I have a True T-15G Refrigerator and the condenser pipe insulation looks melted. Almost like black tar. It even dripped down to the water collection tray. Thoughts? Would love your opinion. You’re a very smart professional when it comes to these things. Liked and subscribed!!!

Fantastic job 👍👍👍👍 Geraldo lmao 😂 😂😂😂

That was epic.

[@MrBest797]

Cool!

[@plankshield]

great channel.. If a fridge is not cooling but the first 6 inches or so of the cap tube is completely icing over, where would you start? Condenser coils are clean. It worked a month ago when I plugged it in and it has been sitting off till last night..

[@NorCal-refrigeration]

Possibly low on charge

[@davesespinas8888]

Master......

Hey Dave what torch tip are you using?

[@BigHuff-sq9hb]

Does the bottom part of that fridge slide out? Like where the compressor is

[@rahmanyalshugaa3556]

What is the size of the capillary tube did you use please and if a prep table 2 doors how can i size it

[@kelvinduongwa]

I recharged my work van.

[@HernanAnzola]

I've seen some leave the pressure on the suction line at 4psi, but you always leave it at 18psi when working with r134a. Could you please help me understand what is the correct pressure?

[@CHOMAHOMA]

You got your emergency brake on buddy!

No my ABS module has loose solder connections and in to busy errrrrr lazy to fix it. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂✨

right? captube already replaced, suction accumulator removed, who knows how long the compressor will last

[@AVR-hf1rl]

I noticed you removed the accumulator don't you to have one on coolers and freezers ?

What was that you cleaned while vacuuming the system?

Condenser coil

its a common problem with early 2000's GM products. the abs module is garbage

Yep abs module loose solder connections

1/4 turn every 3 revolutions on tubing cutters

[@imdabeast100]

was that a customgrow intro reference?

[@ralphgiampietro85]

How do you get the customer to go for a new coil/t-stat here in New York if the coil a leaker never would a customer go for replacement as the cost to repair/replace after all said and done (labor cost) it's really in their best interest to buy new and warranted...but more power to u

[@NorCal-refrigeration]

They wanted to fix it. I was trying to run away from it. Lol

I charged an astro van today at work was blowing 39 degrees at idle

[@christopherborst5717]

I thought you have to braze with nitrogen because of oxidation and carbon? Is it not necessary to run the nitrogen through the lines as you breeze?

[@TheVinnyt63]

Question: on these small ass units that take charges of less than 1 lb - how do you know if you have weighed in the correct charge? My scale says 1 lb but that is the difference at my scale. There is refrigerant in my hoses and manifold - WTF chuck?

[@NorCal-refrigeration]

It’s a base line then look for a 20 degree evap and compressor amps.

[@ApplianceRep]

Bam busting my balls 🤣

[@AVR-hf1rl]

Reach in only?
