    Bed Cover

    A/C upgrade gone wrong

    After your well and check the gasket and repair, pull another vacuum with a vacuum gage in line, after a couple hours turn the pump off and check the vacuum gage to ensure it holds a good vacuum. The system is good if it holds 500 microns for 30 minutes or so. Keith

    Dan How about a lord mount system, found this one on amazon, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0099BRJ1Y/?tag=atomicindus08-20 We used Lord mounts on Reciprocating Aircraft engines way back when, I haven't tried these on a garage door opener but might be worth a try. Keith
