TomsFocus Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Take it back to your garage friend and ask him to check for more leaks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iantt Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Another or the same leak. That leak has put the the equivalent of another 786kg of co2 in the atmosphere since last week. Poor polar bears and dolphins. 🤣🤣🤣 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are multiple ones in a A/C system. If your friend knows about A/C he should fill it with a dye so that when it leaks out you can visually see where it leaks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Inner seal or outer seal? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iantt Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Condenser will probably have a small hole in it. Not the easiest to see even with dye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave37 Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 guys thanks for your fun comments but lets be serious i cannot hear the click of the compresser coming on so gonna assume a fuse or another problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimpster Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 possibly not a definate click unless you stood over it but definately a change in engine note. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
