I discovered this:



A few weeks ago I took the fan out and pulled just as much crap out of it. When I took the heads off I also found the same thing under the intake manifolds. Crazy how much stuff gets stuck in there.

My A/C was working fine and then all of the sudden it quit. All signs point to the expansion valve so I'm replacing that and the drier, then putting a heavy vac on the system and charging it again. I'm getting pretty good at fixing A/C systems these days.

 

Looks like a mouse made a home in your cab or something.

How are you putting a vac on your system?

 

That's what I was thinking, but I didn't find any rats and nothing is chewed up?

I bought a manifold gauge set with a vac pump. I figured as many times as I've had to service an A/C system I might as well just buy the tools. It was only about $100 which is probably what a shop would charge per visit.

 

Hey, that's my screwdriver! I wondered where it went.

 

Nice shop floor.

 

you beat me to it

 

that's a really nice shop floor too

 

your good at ac systems?

So uh... Wanna help me fix mine?

 

Good deal!

 

Sure, it's going to be a long drive for you though.

I put that epoxy coating on when I bought the house. Cost me about $100 for everything to do it with including the epoxy from Home Depot. I didn't put a clear coat on it and now I wish I would have.

 

omg, looks like a baby chicken or something

 

I have that same screwdriver!!!!

 

wow, that pretty much makes you guys brothers, doesn't it

 

i have that screwdriver also, i think everyone has that phillips screwdriver.

justin u better get that ac fixed before summer hits! Its miserable here. my ac took a crap but it turned out to be the switch itself

 

i think i have 2 of that screwdriver.
at least you have a/c. mine didn't come with it at all. it gets hot in Ga. too, and humid.

 

It's been decent here so far and today is supposed to be cooler. I'm just making sure I'm ready for the super heat.
