    From start to end a series of five videos showing how a compressor dies when low on refrigerant. In one video I show you the discharge line temperature of the compressor at 201°F the system only had 90 g of refrigerant in it. The temperature measured at the discharge line is 50 to 75° cooler than the inner core temperature of the compressor.


    my YouTube link above is 1 of 5 short video series.

    Could you have a single thread with all your videos (like NutzaboutBolts) rather than spamming all the forums?

    I will look at (nutsaboutbolts) and emulate that format if that’s what you think is best I’m not too good at maneuvering around the different pages. Because this was a 2008 Prius I came down to the GEN two and posted these videos on this particular vehicle here.
