Perhaps the perfect repair video. No pissing around spending ten minutes explaining how to remove the wheel, just getting it done! Bravo!
This is a great video. He doesn't leave out anything and his camera work is sharp and steady
I think “nuts and bolts” type videos can be just as good as complex diagnostics videos. There is always something I pick up from watching a master technician work. I’ve watched a thousand brake job videos on the South Main Auto channel
lol but I seriously pick up little tips and tricks constantly. Great work as always. I dig the chill music
Yes you should do more of these. You are the only one that explained how to charge to a/c with the gauges so clearly on youtube
I have a 5.3 Silverado, this will be very helpful to me. Please continue to produce these types of video's, greatly appreciated. All your videos have been very helpful. Thank you.
Yeah, more videos for sure.
I think this mobile/home based mechanic business agrees with you.
Smiling more and you seem less stressed - congrats!
You rebuilt the engine and a couple of months later it's still running great. That's amazing!
Love your vids bro. My two cents to everyone out there is this...only cause this bit me once before. New compressors “usually” come with a full system charge of oil. Sometimes that full system oil charge can be up to 8 ounces or more and the old compressor may only be holding an ounce give or take. The safest method of doing this would be to measure exactly what comes out of the old compressor, then drain the new one and put back that same amount of new oil that came out of the old one. The full system charge is great if you’ll be replacing the condenser and drier cause all you have to do is flush the evap out. Sorry for my crap grammar, not proud to say I skipped way more school than I should have.
Dude,Ur The Man!!!
Super Helpful!!!
Thank U Sir...
I Was Going 2 Go 2 A Shop And Get Changed 350 Tomorrow...
Just 2 Switch Out The Compressor And Change The System ...
Now U Gave Me The Confidence 2 Do It My Self...
GOD Bless U Good Sir...
Fishing the compressor out is the whole reason I came here and you just glazed over it. Thanks
This is great for 2WD. For 4WD, remove the heater hoses going into the water pump and remove compressor from top (no room with axle and 4WD components to remove from bottom.
Thanks. I was hoping someone on here would mention this .
Yeah, you know it....I managed to do it from the bottom but there's one mounting bolt that is a real bee-awtch to crack loose even with obstruction type 'S' wrenches.....it's gonna be fun to get that bolt started without cross-threading it.
Eric, I am so glad to see you as a mobile mechanic. You don't have all the overhead expenses of a shop. You can keep more profit in your pocket, and eventually get a enclosed trailer to carry your compressor and other tools. Get a toyota tundra to pull it. Extremely reliable. You can look for a used one, maybe hard to find, but you can do it. You have all the knowledge and experience!
Repairs like those are good money-makers, because they're quick and easy. And people will always need a/c in Texas, so there's always a market
I work on boats for a living in Miami. My side hustle is auto ac work. During the summer in Miami (80% of the year) ac work isn’t hard to find. I have a buddy that works at a dealer who sends me work they can’t figure out or when their customers want their ac fixed but can’t afford dealer pricing. If you learn these systems inside out you can make decent money repairing them.
Hell yeah bro here in Houston you can cash in on that ac work like a mug lol
I like how the video didn't take that long but explain every step of the way, thank you
Super helpful video I have a phobia about working under the truck with the tire off. I left my tire on, just turned to the left and it wasn't in the way at all. I appreciate you taking it off for better visual in the video.
Thank you for talking the time to make this videos for us, greatly appreciated, good luck on future endeavors
You‘re great in diagnosing stuff so I‘d like to see you doing „mechanical“ stuff as well to learn that stuff from you as well. So yes I‘d like this kind of videos too. Keep up the good work! 👍🙂
Thank you VERY MUCH! Yours is the best video I've seen to do this, which is exactly how I replaced mine. This is much better than the others!
Thanks! It was useful and I have been experiencing the same problem with my o4 Silv with same engine. Saw were the pressure switch can go out and cause the same symptoms (hot air). So I amazoned it for $8 and took about 3 mins to replace it. When I did my maint operation chec, it was cool air! So I thought I had fixed it. Pretty proud of myself. But after it being parked for a week, I started it up and went for a drive and the cold air would not come on. So, now, I'm looking to replace the condenser. Your video was helpful, in that it made me realize I have the skill, just don't have the equipment needed to discharge / charge the system. Off to the shop we go!
Just a note. When you take out an old compressor, drain the PAG oil into a graduated cylinder or beaker to measure the amount of oil, than drain all the new PAG out of the new compressor and put back in the new compressor the same amount that came out of the old compressor. The new compressor comes with a full system charge of oil so you are overloading the system with PAG.
Not always. Some come pre-charged with about 3 ounces of PAG, some come filled with a shipping oil that needs to be drained, some don't come pre-charged at all. It's best to check your paperwork for the compressor you purchased to see what you're working with.
Right! Check the specs, all don’t come with full system amount of oil.
Most of these new compressors come already oiled
Only works if u don't have a leaky compressor
You should have a complementary video how to find and repair leak on the AC lines
I have the exact same AC compressor for a 2003 chevy express 3500. liked how you explained everything. good job.
Thanks for this! I'm staring down at a very expensive repair through a shop but this seems pretty doable!
This guys very nice with his steps I’m feeling confident that I’ll be able to repair my truck
Venturi-style vacuum--i started off with one of these.I don't recommend using with hygroscopic oils though. Great job replacing in under an hour!
U had the best video out of 3 compressor replacement videos not that the other guys didnt try but you had a camera stand and lit up the area took the time to make sure we could easily see what you were doing 😉 you get a thumbs up and a subscriber by me👍
Great video. I like both diag as well as R&R videos.
Doesn't hurt that I have an old GMT800 like that one. Compressor can't last forever...
Good Job. I was approaching this job all wrong.
Thank you for showing me the way
Every video you make is a class to me. Keep them coming.
Great video friend. I own a Chevy Tahoe 2002 and my ac compressor is out. Your detailed instructions gave me great confidence to tackle on the project myself. Thank you! Please create more awesome video tutorials. Maybe on how to install shocks and struts on 2000-2006 Chevy Tahoe, V8 5.3
I can tell it's cold A/C just by looking at the low side pressure. Probably just a touch undercharged but that's okay as long as the evaporator doesn't freeze. That air powered vacuum pump doesn't really vacuum low enough to remove moisture but I get where you're coming from. I've been there myself. I've used that same pump at one point when I didn't have a proper vacuum pump. You do what you gotta do. That pump is certainly better than charging with no vacuum at all. Good job, Sir!
Yea....man!!! Please more! Your detailed instructions are the best. Thanx.
Thanks for the video! I like your videos, I find them very helpful when I'm working on my cars and truck. I used this video to replace the compressor on my 2010 Silverado.
Good Stuff nice to see an honest guy win.
I’d love to see more videos like this.
Thanks for the video. I need to replace the seals at the compressor connections on my 02F150 and it is located at the exact same place on the engine. Looks like I need to remove the wheel and fender liner exactly like what you showed on this video.
Thanks for taking us along. I enjoyed the trip to the airport. Great work as always. BTW, your videos are extremely helpful. Almost all of the advice you give is applicable on most cars and taking us through your logical thought processes is really good. Keep the videos coming.
Very nice! Simple and to the point! Thank you.
Yes love to see different vids, thank you! I hardly get anything done, lol!!!
Eric,another good entertaining video. Hope all is well with you and family. Stay well Artie❤️
Eric's on the road. 👍 Always interesting whatever the videos are.
Wow, great video! I am not a mechanic and I am D-I-Y by necessity due to life constraints. This video is great for a couple of reasons; 1) you demonstrated that this is a big job [for me]; however, you made it look easy and tempting for me. I visited a couple of local auto repairs shops and auto parts store. I actually received honest tips from each business I visited yesterday. I received a parts list from the auto parts store for $400.00 + that included AC Compressor, Accumulator, Orifice Tube and AC Condenser. I checked my truck's repair history argh! I just wish I had confidence in finding honest mechanics.
@NoobsGaming1124 Thanks for the tip, but I got very lucky that I was recommended to a local shop [I thought they only did oil changes]: the Chief Mechanic (Brian) - God I am praying for his full recovery because his hands were recently badly injured while working on a customer's vehicle: Brian has performed mechanical wizardry for our vehicles that all other mechanics did not want to service. Brian repaired my truck's HVAC for maybe $80.00 - at the time of repair Brian telephoned to report that the A/C line is good, but the valves/seal were the incorrect parts; he installed the correct valves/seal then commenced the vacuum seal test; the A/C system passed the vacuum seal test; therefore no leaks - he recharged the A/C and it feels like a cool fall Virginia day in the cab while it is a hot summer Florida day. During this HVAC issue, I felt like I was having other engine problems, so I also inquired if Brian would look at the battery and alternator. Brian also reported that the alternator was bad and needed replacement. I was shocked because I had both a new battery [Interstate Warranty installed at a local garage] and alternator installed by a "Mobile Mechanic" at O'Reilly's Parking Lot in 2019. Thank God the alternator failed within the warranty window! Brian repaired/replaced the A/C System and the Alternator at Grand Total of $70.77!!!! I now have a couple of spare parts [AC Delco Part #15-33436 from GMC Dealership, that I purchased prior to visiting Brian's shop. I think my total repair cost even with the purchase of parts I didn't need was $225.00 to $250.00. I pray for Brian's full recovery! He is a honest good man!

Thanks for the video. It was very instructional and entertaining. I was going to do this job myself on my 2004 Tahoe but after watching your video I realized I don't have all the same tools you used and this would be very frustrating for me to tackle. You made it look easy but I would still struggle because I'd have to buy to rent a bunch of tools I don't have. Ultimately I'd have to see how much the mechanic will charge me to do it for me. If the mechanic quotes me an arm and leg I may decide to do it myself after all. LOL
Almost every shop will charge you for a full a/c system rebuild because a/c systems are so delicate. What did you end up doing?
Your video was extremely helpful to me, I've a 2008 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi needing A/C service. Happy to be a new subscriber to your channel!!
Very very very good video man. I blew up my ac compressor racing and forgot my ac was on. It completely seized and blew out the front seal and burned the belt and Almost caught fire so this replacement video is very good
I love your videos!!! I bought ThinkDiag. It’ll be arrived tomorrow. Thank you for discount! Great video! My dad and my uncle’s have Chevy 5.3. Tahoe and suburban. I fixed a lot on their trucks. Keep making video!
you are very good and informative with what you do. THANK you.
Hell yeah they are helpfull. Thanks for the video i'll be replacing my a/c compressor on my truck tomorrow
Eric. The Road warrior mechanic keep the overhead low especially with this epidemic 😷 great video thanks for sharing
Wish I could have seen the decompression but overall it was excellent for the quick and dirty like me. Excellent video, and the editing wasn't too bad. ( maybe a few less planes next time, although I do like those.)
The was the most perfect example I've seen. Thank you so much!!
Keep the videos coming!!! Well made and very understandable.
Keep making videos, your very good at it and easy to understand. Thank you
After getting a quote of 700 up to 2k to replace and rexharge my ac system...im definitely going to do it myself.
Going in through the wheel well is a whole lot easier than top of the engine coolant all over the place by removing those 3 coolant lines.
Thanks for the video bro
Very helpful to me.every video we learned something.keep it up.
AN EASY ONE FOR A CHANGE...........WELL DONE .........WISH U MORE OF THOSE REPAIRS......
I owned that very same air driven vacuum pump from HF some 30+ years ago when HF was catalog only. Being young and dumb, I didn't realize that my small compressor could not keep up. Chalk up yet another learning experience, but at least it did not cost very much. Actually, if I remember at the time, it was like $4-8 dollars back then.
Great video man. Well done, well spoken, informative and descriptive. Nice man.
Eric does another fantastic job!
Hey Erek this is Kyle up in Mountain Grove Missouri just wanna let you know I really appreciate your videos and they’re really informative and entertaining keep it up man!!
Great stuff, Im ready to change my compressor. Thanks
great job. just what i needed to see. replacing on 2000 silverado.
Excellent video, short and sweet and very detailed thank you sir
Great video, definitely want more like this. Would've loved to see how to discharge the system
Exactly, it would be helpful to see how he discharged and or vacuum the system cus is a must do before anything else.
Love love love the editing skills primo, Love the videos
That road across from Bear Creek Park is fun on the bike! Twisty!!
Yes it is!
This was great. I’m about to replace mine and this was helpful.
Very good and very clear vedio. They should all be like this vedio . Easy to understand.
Great video. So many out there that suck so back, awesome job bro.
Good video. I replaced the AC compressor in our 2005 Yukon Denali with a new Denso unit, had issues with oil slugging and breaking AC belt. So I didn't have particles in the system so I didn't need to change condenser or orifice tube.
Nice to see how this is practically done without all the special tools. Yup, very helpful. There are a lot of confusing special rules about AC work, but the one I often wonder about is how serious they are about verifying you did a flush if you attempt to cash in a warranty claim on the compressor. That truck looks very familiar, ha ha.
Great instructional video. Thank you.
Wow great video bro. Just taking care of business and great shots. Respect gonna check out more of your vids.
Yes make more videos excited to learn appreciate that you share keep going you doing great!
the compressor on my 96 t100 has 340k miles guess who it's made by the alt. too i 'm in Florida so it never gets turned off. love your electrical videos.hope things are looking up for you my brother .
Great video!! Good angles, clean explanations. This wasn't the same model as the Chevy I was working on but this video gave me the knowledge I needed to transfer the same steps into my repair!! Thank you so much!! Is there a way I can contact you to maybe collaborate on a future repair? Or just talk about car repair and production?
Great video! I have to do this soon as mine has bad bearings in my 03 Silverado.
Que bueno que quedo bien espero y no tenga problemas ya que me recomiendan limpiar las líneas por cualquier rebaba o contaminación para no dañar el compresor nuevo
Thank You for posting! Great video :)
Plane Spotting too?You deserve a lot more subscribers man. Love the content. Watching from The Bahamas.
Use 1 can then start it.... Thank you! Finally got my blazer recharged!
I Wish you happy live and peace of mind I think you are straggling these days like all of us but you will move on you are good don't worry 👍
The video was both useful and entertaining.
Nice work. For some reason I really love AC work. There is something extra rewarding when you get in and feel that cold air. How about a good diag video for that MIL he had on that CHEVVVVVroLET?
Gained a like and a sub today. 😎👍 Thank you for an amazing walkthrough!
Love that music man, Thanks for the video, and the music pretty cool
Educational and helpful thank you very much
Great video. I'd love to see more like these.
Great job thanks for share your experience
@18:36 Oh yeah, oh yeah...
Made me feel that cool air over here...🥶
Subscribed. I do mobile repair out of san antonio, not as in depth as u but i do heavy equipment also. That a/c belt was toast brother lol
Excellent video! If you have a leak in the line how do you go about identifying where it is and how to fix it?
Nice and easy repair bro!!
Very good video bro I'm going to change mine myself appreciate man.
Wow you're good, whenever you come to Dallas please fix mine, awesome job
Thanks man, for your excellent help!
Well explained. Thanks for the help ‼️
