You are correct. I will edit my post.

Got it wired up and purchased some R134A and the hose kit to check and recharge. I checked with my kid and he reports the AC has not worked for some time...so decided to find the leak. I pressure tested to 100 PSI using a bottle of CO2 I had here. I sprayed down everything and couldn't find...

Back in the day, I could get a 40 Gallon NG water heater for $150 and it would last 8 or 10 years, and I was fine with that. Then I did an upstairs remodel that took out my flue space for the water heater, so I had to switch to a power vent model. So, now replacement is going to be a bigger...

Will do. I actually think I figured out how it was wired at the time the engine gave out. It looks like the mechanic installed the low pressure switch in the drier, and then hooked the factory harness "Hot" wire into the binary switch by jamming a stripped wire end from the switch pigtail...

On a fox mustang, the cooling fan is mounted to the water pump pulley and turned by the serpentine belt.

My understanding is the binary switch was designed to cut power to the compressor clutch if the freon got low (Low pressure cut off) AND cut off power to the clutch if the pressure gets too high. Based on the wiring diagram, the high pressure cut off was not included by the OEM R12 system...

Hey guys...this is sort of on topic in a very roundabout way. I have an ac system in my garage right now that isn't working. It's in my kid's Fox mustang though. This is an R134A kit that was installed in the car about 12 years ago. I put it in the car at the time, and still have the...

Nice DP. I wouldn't hesitate to get it. Although I don't have that particular drill press, I have a smaller Craftsman one as well as one of their old 10-inch table saws. Parts have been very easy to find. If it's stuff that's missing and can be bought used, there will be many for sale on...

If I'm reading you right, you're kicking on a cold water heater in the early morning when your batteries are pulled down already and the sun has not had a chance to recharge. I'd be very curious if this would work better by moving your showers later in the day. May not be the solution you...

If you've searched, you've probably seen my posts arguing against using CSST many times. The big issue with the original deployment of CSST was houses were burning down at a (fire) alarming rate in situations where lightning would strike the house, energize the csst, heat the thin-walled...
