Well, it started off its life in bad shape. With a little love, a few hours, and a couple of beers, I think I managed to patch her all up.
As you can see before, the suction line cracked off right where the SS meets the coper. I don't know why they thought that was a good idea.
So I ripped that off, cut down that tower of copper that caused the problem and brazed on a new suction line, cap tube, chilly1 evap, and drier.
Here is the part way stage of the game.
Unit all up, charged and running.
And, of course the disaster of a train wreck that I made in the process.
Sorry, no step by step pictures this time, not enough intrest on my part to do so. All that is left is to stick the unit back in the case, and hook up a new temp probe, and reinsulate the scution line, oh and tune it once I get my new 'toy'.......
