Re: Compressor shim removal

You can see the shims in the pictures. They're on the shaft slid all the way to the back. Yes I am wanting to reduce the air gap, just can't seem to get them to slide off. Thanks,

Compressor shim removal

I hate to ask complete noob and dumb questions, but can someone tell me why I can't get the shims to slide off this compressor shaft? Short of taking it off and trying to shake them out? I've tried everything I have to use to walk them off and they won't come. I've done this before but can't remembe...

Re: Big truck a/c help

The pressures I've been getting are at 90-92 degrees. I have not checked the York's oil. It was supposed to come pre filled and I took them at their word.

Re: Big truck a/c help

Interestingly enough a friend of mine just ran into a guy who has worked on a lot of these old trucks and he said I have it overcharged for a York compressor. He said run the low side at 25-30 and high side at 175-200. I've never heard that but like I told him I'm willing to try anything.

Big truck a/c help

I have an older semi that has a weak a/c system and does some funny things. The previous owner told me it didn't work well and 60 degrees is as cold as I can get it. It has a brand new York compressor, dryer and expansion valve. I flushed the system and pulled a vacuum on it for about 3 hours. The c...
