Re: Looking for Alma compressor
Hi Tim Yes, that was me. I was looking to make sure that the cross reference was correct. He confirmed 2:00, 5”, no SHS. Does the one you sent the link for have the SHS? Again, just want to make sure I order the correct one. The picture in the second link without the SHS looks like the clutch conne...

Re: Can a vacuum pump be "bad" despite pulling to proper Hg vacuum?
So I added a few zeros. Never matters on the debit. I hate when this happens.Dougflas wrote:Tim wrote:1000 or lower microns. It would indicate a working pump in my opinion.
I respectfully disagree. A vacuum pump with a micron gauge on it should pull below 100; usually 50 microns.

1000 or lower microns. It would indicate a working pump in my opinion.
It's okay to ask questions. All answers are simply suggestions by those that may have knowledge of repairing a system. Not all of us will have the same opinion all the time.

Re: Can a vacuum pump be "bad" despite pulling to proper Hg vacuum?
Why do I only ever see micron gauges used in home HVAC work? I'm not disputing the benefits for automotive work, but I've never seen them used, and even my professional mechanic friends don't use or own them for automotive AC work. It just seems like an expensive tool for me to add just to see if m...

Re: Can a vacuum pump be "bad" despite pulling to proper Hg vacuum?
Best way to know you have a proper vacuum. Is to use a Micron gauge in the ac gauge set-up. 1000 microns or less with 500 microns being the best number to achieve.
Replacing vacuum pump oil is recommended to achieve best micron number.

Nitrogen with a little R134a works fine for leak checks. Personal preference on using either a electric or a dye style leak detection option.

Re: 1990 Dodge D250 Cummins A/C Compressor
Unless you have a sump (and your compressor doesn't feature neither a sump, nor an isolated crankcase that can store a good amount of oil), almost nothing keeps the compressor lubricated during a DIY recharge accomplished with the compressor on, except perhaps that little oil (usually half an oz) w...
