There is refrigerant under the oil, and it releases when it’s moved, dropped or shook in any way. If possible, shake the compressor while recovering or you can heat the bottom with your torches and it will get it while your recovering so that doesn’t happen. Lesson learned for me!
Nice Job! Looks like an older Carrier. Nice that you can keep them running! That Refrigerant Shower, Yikes!
😅
Your videos are so great! Super helpful. Keep up the awesome work and be safe out there 😂
Thank you! :)
What happened? Wasn't all the refrigerant recovered?
