Showme,
If you do check in the past posts ... it won't take long to run across a few people who have been on the forum promoting ... often selling at their place of business.. junk stuff...
This gets people like Larry and me pretty unhappy because we hate to see innocent people who believe these folks posts lose a lot of time and money and not have proper and LONG LASTING AC....
Listen to VStech and Larry..
and for whoever asked above... I will answer a question they did not ask...
The fact is that our compressors are the old style which has NO OIL SUMP..
This makes them more dependent on the proper oil being used because the only lube they get is what is circulated through the system..
So , OIL MISCIBILITY , the ability of the oil to be dissolved in the refrigerant so it can be carried around and around the system.... is MORE important on our systems with the Delco R4 than it is on later swashplate type compressors...
Cr, that is great that you used what I have been preaching ( and is approved by the EPA as a test method which allows the venting of that test load ). I am trying to figure out how to divide my 15 oz can of R22 evenly without an accurate scale.
I believe that people can pretty much do whatever they want with THEIR cars... although I do promote following the EPA rules... but when it comes to promoting junk procedures or junk refrigerants or lazy methods... I believe the people on the forum not yet familiar with what is safe and long lasting need to be warned...
If Larry's post was a rant... it had ten years of provocation by some real gems of trollers and bad physics promoters behind it....
