baub beat me to it. The springs under the compressor are going bad. If they are not gone too far you can sometimes put cardboard under the bad area and it will deaden the noise a little. Most of the time this is not a problem, especially if it is a garage unit.

baub was referring to the springs inside the can. Compressors have springs mounted internaly also.

Yeah, kinda hard to replace those. It's one of those Embarco? Embraco? imported jobs too.

I would but I just got back from N Carolina and need to catch up on work. Already tried to get time off to go fishing offshore for 4 days and was turned down for vacation time.

As far as the weight thing, your really starting to get to me and make me feel bad. I am getting depressed. When I get depressed I eat. Got to go, Pizza Hut just showed up and the delivery guy for the chinese food is right behind him.

No, I am too stupid, you know that, besides it works on the cycle I am using so screw it, I am lazy too.
Take the time and come up, life is short, especially for fat guys.
