Kashif:Ran into this a few weeks back. Some suggested using a spray device to make the water a mist, thus minimising the risks. I respect Eric a lot, but...not bold enough to attempt this. Let me await Gazzuzz's experiment. Siena any thoughts? |
earthrealm:Thanks Earthrealm, for now I'll leave high-side charging for the pros will be managing the longer charge time through the low-side. I'm a very patient person ![]() But seriously I read on one HVAC forum that depending on the proximity of the high-side port to the compressor, damage can still after liquid charging when the car is started. I actually added 539g of refrigerant using a scale. A full charge is 500-550g for the 2003 -2007 4cyl Accord. |
noxide:My brother its really difficult or should I say more expensive sourcing tools when your outside the key cities; chiefly Lagos. You may want to get from there if you ever have cause to visit. That's exactly what I did. I shoved acquiring the tools into my business visit ![]() |
boldx:Sorted. |
Kashif:More expensive and added to what mayor just said single stage is perfect for this kind of work. |
grimadult:You can send me a PM then or if on whatsapp mail your number to piyke(at)diyautoworksng(dot)com |
chukel:Oil is introduced after you have placed a vacuum on the system. Measure out the oil, add it to the yellow service line, connect to refrigerant can, purge air, and then charge. Responding to your pm... |
grimadult:Sorry I missed this earlier. Would be happy to assist for a small fee especially if it would require me charging the system. Are you in Owerri? |
chukel:I simply followed the directions on the refrigerant can. The Harp gas (made in UK) says alternate between 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock every 2-3 seconds. Charging through the low side as gas does take longer, but for now I prefer to stick to that as I am not conversant with charging via high side. But going by first principles, if you intend to charge through the high side with the engine off, I doubt that this small can will have enough pressure to deliver the total amount of charge to the system. It will probably deliver to a point and stop. The compressor plays a big role in drawing in refrigerant into the system except you are using one of those charging stations. |

IdaraCHODB:Thanks boss. Coming to think of it I need to put the investment to good use you know. cheers! |
mayor2013:Single stage. |
GAZZUZZ:That's good to hear. Thanks again! |
GAZZUZZ:Oh Gazzuzz. I thought you knew it was me all along o. Na you be the great o. I did buy Harp gas. Was told it's one of the best available in Naija. Is it true? Was shown the chinese version and the genuine one ![]() https://www.diyautoworksng.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/20160305_182426.jpg |
I was in Lagos recently and picked up all I need to correctly charge an AC system! Thanks to Gazzuzz who gave me the right market to get these in Lag. https://www.diyautoworksng.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/20160305_142735.jpg I've already used the tools to give the perfect charge to my AC. I documented the DIY procedure here: http://www.diyautoworksng.com/recharge-car-ac-system/ I had to do this because when my magnetic clutch was replaced 3 years ago, no vacuum was applied on the system . I just couldn't find a shop with a vacuum pump. Now I know better.My cabin now feels like trekking unclothed in Antarctica ![]() |
spyder880:Not received. Please resend. Many thanks. |
mayor2013:For washing off oil and grease from the chassis and the engine in general I tend to use engine degreaser. Although it can be hard to come by sometimes in Nigeria. This is off topic though as its not used for engine parts per say. |
You'll have to have your car scanned to avoid working blind |
Now this is personal ![]()
|
This is nice Autofreak! |
ifyalways: It would be nice if the work could go on as planned. Hoping that all that have the money available can pay up while we trust God's provision for those that do not. At Spyder880 good work!!! Can somebody now run a registry search on plot in this land an it would reflect in my name? |
I am yet to hear the government declare an emergency plan tasked with identifying, fast-tracking and making market-ready, raw resources in this country that are in high demand in the international market. Just the other day I heard Shea butter is in high demand (didn't confirm though). To continue to focus on oil with no plan for commodities that would increase our dollar income is really not the best. The question I expect the government to answer is; what commodities can we bring to the international market within the next 1 - 4months and how do we make it happen? |
drjoshua2000:Modified.. Can see Kashif is in the house ![]() |
Can you imagine this guy still called me just 2 days ago ![]() |
