Hey Jack, you deal with this guy. I think I've met my match with him.
Compressor working fine, replace it. That's the ticket.
Ur full of it. Easy for you to say. Oh and by the way the compressor wasn't dead. If u read my first post carefully you would see that I said the maint guy wanted to change it just because. So there was no reason to investigate. Worked fine. I even tested the oil for hahas. Hail to SPOTTS! The almighty refrigerant sniffer

My doctor gave me six months to live, but when I couldn't pay the bill he gave me six months more.

Everyone knows that all you need to do is adjust the subheat reading to make it work.
I'll give you the maint. Guys number so you can tell him that. I do what I'm told. As long as it means keeping my job. And by all means if the guy wants to spend money on something like that so be it. I don't care about the compressor good, bad, a waste, or not. All I was looking for was the symptoms that I would see. So why are u crying about the rest of the job? I would love to see what kinda hack jobs you guys have installed and or sold. Quick to try and point out mistakes of others but not your own. Easy to hide behind your keyboard.

< Comment not needed > All u guys reply in the same posts. U all get in a circle jerk with each other and talk about how everybody is always wrong but yourselves. Like I said its easy to hide behind a keyboard and judge everyone else's jobs. A normal person will answer a question when asked and not come up with wild conclusions on a job u know nothing about.like I said earlier.... DRAMA QUEENS.

While some of the Pro members have answered in a less then complimenting manor. Which can be taken wrong by many.
They do know what they are talking about. And are well respected.
Please don't change their names to insults.
I have edited some post.
Okay "grasshopper" my esteemed colleagues answered your question the way any of them would have handled it.(and myself for that matter) However if you are looking for a "Gilligan’s Island" solution then find a way to unload 1.5 tons if you add a Quench Valve you can go from the discharge to the suction... But only after you can snatch this pebble from my hand.
If it doesn't go easy, you are not using a big enough hammer.
The sad part of the whole thing is the guys you are in a flame war with right now can be a very big asset to you. They have helped me solve many problem children tech at my company have not been able to figure out for years. On top of that they have resources that will help you grow as a tech.
AMEN to that. Just reading here I have learned a LOT. Just getting into the refrigeration end of HVAC after being in the heat for years, and come here first for the answers I am seeking, you would be wise to do the same. If the tell you to "check things out" BEFORE changing parts, then listen to them. Now, go for that pebble.
