With the fan on high these are the operating pressures at a fast idle.
With the fan on 2 the unit actually got cold enough to cycle. Its never done that before.
Still a few bubbles in the sight glass but thats OK.

pressures not to bad but what is ambient temp?

That was last summer nearly 12 months ago.
Sitting in the shed it was pretty hot with no breeze.
Car is our 92 RR Sherwood.
Still cooling well this summer too.
Just about to do the 92 200tdi Disco as well but have to get the wiring finished to the RedDot on the roof.

Anyone know of a high chill
fill in nw brisvegas.

Yep try this guy. Luu is his name o412167318. He is a mobile guy. Did mine a couple of years ago.

... and I'll be up for a HyChill here is sunny Perth. Not the Rangey..that's now up on blocks (figuratively speaking) as I've been handed - down my son's old Mazda 323 / 1.8 FOUR cylinder,,,,, and 7.3 litres per 100km is much more bearable than Sarah's 20 l/100km guzzling.

That's nearly half an hour's flying lesson every week, and I'll soon save enough to fix it's luke-warm 134a system.

Can we get HyChill in Perth?. Pat

I hope so... the Classic's A/c is still working, but not as cold as I'd expect... and I don't want 134a back in there.

A "roving bush" tractor mechanic I know does a lot of emergency header etc. repairs this time of year.

Nearly always accompanied by a complaint the machine A/C is not cold enough, can you do something??

His solution is to release a dose of LPG into the suction side of the system resulting in a happy plant driver in cool comfort.

I think he might service a few car/wagon A/C systems the same way.
Not debating the legality/morality of this, its just what he does.

What is a fact, he is a top breakdown mechanic, very much in demand and an "aw... fix me up later" attitude.
Should add this bloke is near 80, has been going to give it up for the last 20 years so he can spend more time fishing.
