OE TXV will be here on tomorrow morning's Ford run. I really need to max out the compressor and make sure it's still strong, I had metal flakes on the Orifice tube when I swapped a standard one in for the variable one in use at the time. It was not a flushing issue, as lines were flushed 4 times, t...

To cool properly your low side pressure needs to get under 40 psi at 2,000 rpm and should in stock condition. With the rear unit shut off I would expect to see 30-35 psi on the low side at 2,000 rpm as a maximum even in 100F. Thanks Pressures are wonky for sure, have a OEM TXV valve headed to the s...

Without rehashing all the reasons to suspect the rear TXV, I agree with Carguychris85 on this one. Suggest purchasing an OE TXV, install it, recharge to specs, and then test the system's performance.

So let's rule out a weak compressor.....
Recommended testing process for this vehicle?

Just keep in mind that less refrigerant means less oil carried for reliability. It will be a balancing act, so sometimes you need all the equipment to get the best performance out of a system, i.e., reclaimer. reclaimed? as in a refrigerant? Absolutely, evac refrigerant (and some oil), vacuum down ...

The corporate group I do catalog work for is one supplier for 1-800. I was checking to see if we would overlap the parts you already have. When we had our shop, I never needed to undercharge a system with a genuine version of the parallel flow condenser. But, even on the weekend, I reached out to o...

I always used the parallel flow style over the 6mm T&F model. I usually don't ask this, but what brand of parts have you bought already? Ok so don't shoot the AC hack........ For several years we used 1-800 radiators, as they were quick to deliver to the shop, fairly priced and frankly, we neve...

Conflicting data from corporate. 6mm t&F v PFC. An old Motorcraft would have been the 6mm T&F multi-flow. I have to check on Monday. The current condenser Im using is a described as "parallel flow micro-channel" Using the parallel flow micro-channel in place of the discontinued Mo...

Conflicting data from corporate. 6mm t&F v PFC. An old Motorcraft would have been the 6mm T&F multi-flow. I have to check on Monday. Thanks, look forward to what you find. If the currently available condensers are microchannel vs OE 6mm T&F multi-flow what changes would you expect to ma...
