Thanks man, I'll give it a shot and see what happens. I just find it hard to believe that these manufacturers would send out OEM parts that have to be modified to work properly. Actually, I probably...

I haven't, but the place I bought the new one from said the same thing. I've never heard of that, the original didn't have any type of restriction for the supply line. I just thought that maybe they...

I have a Manitowoc SD0302A cuber. The water pump housing is cracked, It still works but I'd like to find another one that's in decent shape. I purchased a new one that was supposedly an OEM pump. But...

Yes sir, I always disconnect the power when I'm working on this stuff. Unless I'm troubleshooting or diagnosticating😁

Ah yes, cracked indeed! Good call iceman, many thanks to all of the contributors here.

It's definitely leaking from around that housing where the water pump motor sits on top. Something I failed to mention. When my customer gave me this machine, he had a couple of his employees load it...

I'm with you on that one my friend. That's what Reddy used to buy, I put a bunch of them on. Didn't have near as many compressor failures. They'd run hot as a pistol ball from a clogged condenser or...

Not a problem my friend. The original was a Danfoss and so when it failed I replaced it with the same thing. It only made it a little over 2 years before the one I put on failed. I used to be a...

Ah, so there's a seal on the bottom side?

I thought the same thing. I don't think it had anything to do with the first one failing but I wanted to be on the safe side.

Do you have any idea as to how the water would be coming through the top there around the motor while it's running?

Alright my friends, I know it's been a while but I think I've finally gotten this little cuber halfway straightened out. I've been working on it in between my service calls is one of the reasons it's...

There's a little difference in the Evap temp. range but other than that they look pretty close. I'll probably give my local URI a call tomorrow and see what they say about it.
...

Thanks again, I'll check it out.

Well, I can't find the NEU series anywhere. Looks like URI has the NEK series but they're showing it as a medium temp compressor.
...

Thanks my friend!

Don't say that man, Manitowoc is real proud of that POS Danfoss.

I acquired this machine from a customer of mine several years ago. The compressor failed on it so I replaced it with another one just like it. It ran another 2 years and the compressor failed...

Hello folks, I've got walmart recruiting me right now. I was just wondering if we had any techs that have or still presently work there now and can tell me a little about the culture. I've got a...

Thanks again Dad! Yeah, I live in Putnam county on lake sinclair. There's not much going on here as far as work goes. However, Milledgeville and the Greensboro/Lake Oconee areas are expanding...

I knew I could always count on good advice from dear old Dad:LOL::LOL::LOL:
I'm about 1 hr. northeast of Macon, about 1.5 hrs southeast of Atlanta and about 1.5 hrs west of Augusta. Any suggestions...

Hi Dad, I'm glad you're still here! I'm considering the residential side of things. There's nobody in my area that fools with them hardly anymore. I had one of my residential HVAC customers call me...

Just recently got laid off of my job and the only places hiring right now in my area are the companies that couldn't keep any help all summer long. I am considering for the time being doing some...

This is what mine looks like.

No, the calibration reference sensor itself is missing.

You guys probably aren't going to believe the story I'm fixing to tell because I can't hardly believe it myself. When I started out in the field 15 or so years ago I bought a CPS leak detector. It...

I guess I'm a little late to the game and haven't stopped by in quite some time. I've been so dang busy lately I hardly have time for anything. My YJ 69086 vacuum gauge wouldn't turn on for me today....

You could if I still had it Mike. I wound up selling it to a guy last summer.

You're right about the uniweld using o-rings. That's the first thing I did when I got it was replaced all the o-rings. They were all rotten from sitting for so long. The guy hadn't used them in over...

Will it screw on the uniweld head? The C tip looks just like the cap'n hook I have.

What about the Cap'n Hook that came with this set I bought? Has anybody used one of those? I'm just wondering if it works better than a regular #2 tip for doing service valves. And is the one I have...

That's what I was thinking the whole time. This valve looks like it's made from a different material than some of the others I've done. Either way, it was my mistake so I'm just going to go back to...

Thanks guys, I started out with an oxygen/acetylene rig. I just liked the turbotorch because I only had to carry one bottle. I've probably burned in over a hundred units with that thing without any...

I'm in the process of changing over from a Turbotorch to an oxygen/acetylene rig. I bought a used uniweld set from a friend. It has two Type 17 tips with it. One is a #0 and the other is a #2. It...

I don't suppose you'd be so kind as to forward that to me or post it if you're allowed. I would think it would just entail making sure you get 24v from the green T-Stat wire and a common to the coil...

What would be the downside of just taking the VSM out and replacing it with a regular old PSC motor? The one I went on and went back to today is still running as far as I know. I went ahead and...

You're right, I don't have any experience with these things. Been on lots of jobs with units that have these motors. But that wasn't what I was there to work on. I did actually take the side off...

Yeah, the wheel and the coil looked good. Put my gauges on it and the pressures looked good. High side was about 250 psi. But it's almost 100 degrees today. The RLA on that motor according to the...

I got a call on one today. A rheem package HP, the HO had someone come out and they said that the blower motor wasn't running. When I got there it was running just fine. I checked amp draw on the...

I am looking for a cheaper alternative as well. I just have a problem with paying 4 or 5 hundred bucks for a cylinder of R-22. As far as selling new R-410 units goes. We've been doing that as well,...

I can guarantee you one thing, if TX decides to check out, I've already told the wife that I'm packing and moving. I'll make sure I remember you and IF it happens, I'll certainly give you call to see...

Thanks Ice!

The manufacturing date may be old, but they're brand new, still in the boxes.

I don't think so, I took pictures of them both so you could see them.

This is one of them:

Hi guys, hope everyone had a very good Independence day. I have a couple of defrost timers that I've acquired that I need some help with. These are both paragon digital type timers. I've only...

I would like to jump in here with an observation. Almost all the capacitors I've been buying off the shelves to stock my truck with over the last couple of years check lower than their rating. I...

I just watched the video fritz, I think I understand what you were talking about now. When you said to crack the service valve, I was scratching my head. I've always called them king valves, I'm...

Thanks Fritz, looks like a step was missing there maybe. After balling both sides off, I am assuming you hook a hose from whatever refrigerant tank you're using to one of the crt's you have hooked up...

I wanted to jump in here with a question. I have a YJ core tool and another one made by cliplight. They both have the 1/4" stubs on them, but the YJ has a schrader valve core in its stub. This is the...

Awesome!!! Don't think I'll get that brave with mine when I get them, but I like it.
