I took her for a longer drive. Not as hot today, but was cold enough to make the cabin chilly. As it cooled off this evening, I had to adjust the ACC up and it was still rather chill. clay > On Jul 16, 2017, at 12:57 AM, fmiser via Mercedes > wrote: > >> clay wrote:

Re: [MBZ] Pressure and volume

Ah, useful data I was running the engine with the manifold on and the service line feeding goo. I have a chart that lists both high and low side at specific temp in f and C. The system was showing pressures consistent with the chart, but the charge was low. The IR probe was not used to

Re: [MBZ] Pressure and volume

That's why I love having an ac machine. I pull it out, and charge with the correct amount by weight. Sent from my iPhone On Jul 15, 2017, at 2:26 PM, fmiser via Mercedes wrote: >> clay wrote: > >> I evacuated the system once more (it had been tested overnight) >> and

Re: [MBZ] Pressure and volume

It is never that easy… SDL has a non operational compressor, or it at least will not kick on, and the aux cooling fan does not kick on either. I only got the car to suck up about 7oz of duster air, so that both hi and low are sitting at 70psi clay > On Jul 14, 2017, at 3:58 PM, clay via

Re: [MBZ] Pressure and volume

I always charge to 80% or r12 amount. Sent from my iPhone > On Jul 14, 2017, at 5:58 PM, clay via Mercedes wrote: > > I am doing the AC recharge in the w126 cars today and have had an interesting > learning curve. > > FIRST, check to make sure the system is complete

Re: [MBZ] Pressure and volume

I've seen conversion ratios given at 75%, 80%, or 90%. I'd start out with 3/4 the weight of the specified R12 charge and go up slowly from there. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change

[MBZ] Pressure and volume

I am doing the AC recharge in the w126 cars today and have had an interesting learning curve. FIRST, check to make sure the system is complete with Schrader valves! High side did not have one and after charging the AC and getting nice cold air, I tried to unhook the manifold. It all came
