It's because youtube prefers videos around 10 minutes and suggests them more often so more people are on KZread more often, for longer periods, in which makes them more 💰money💰 Yay Capitalism.

First of all this video was a special kind of stupid. You should never recharge your AC system in any car unless it has been vacuumed out this is how you destroy your AC system because all the condensation in those lines have not been drawn out by machine vacuuming. The person making this video needs to go back to working on his bicycles and stay the hell away from cars

I would NOT have found the input port without this video. Two cans later, happy A/C. Instead of a royal pain to repair, it was a 15-minute task. THANK YOU. 2004 Taurus.

This made it very clear. His car is a year older than mine, but it looks like new. So this dude knows what he's doing.

I have a 99 and it's the same pretty much. Man hats off to a great, straight to the point video. Shows what and how I need to do the same thing, without a bunch of nonsense, thanks.

Always happy to like and subscribe to KZreadrs who care more about actually helping people than they do about clicks, views, ad revenue, sponsorships, etc. Your video was all meat and no filler, so thank you for that. I would just make one recommendation: tell us what product/brand you used and where you bought it. Like was that just the regular ol' can of universal freon that you can buy right off the shelf at any Walmart or auto parts store? I have no idea, but Googling "car freon" or something will probably help me. It's just an annoying extra step. Other than that minor nitpicky thing, your video was wonderfully to the point and quite educational. Thanks again.

@DirtRoadAutoRepair

No definitely not high heat. You want it on max ac and blowing max cold so that the ac system is working and draws the new refrigerant into the system.

How long does it take for the ac to get cold?

@DirtRoadAutoRepair

4 жыл бұрын

Jessica Bricker Assuming the compressor is working, once it’s full it only takes about a minute to get cold. If the system is full of refrigerant and is not getting cold then you most likely have a compressor problem.

@@DirtRoadAutoRepair the timing chain cover and water pump are a very common failure point on this model. I just replaced my pump but the gasket on my timing chain cover was still dicey. Stop leak actually worked.

Pretty much all modern vehicles use r134a refrigerant. Is there a different modern refrigerant? It can be found at any auto parts store or Walmart. Or the link in the description.

Not real clear about what you are plugging into. On the video it looks like you're plugging into the firewall, all I see in that area is a hose with a screw top on it. No like for unclear videos dude.

This was a special kind of stupid video wasn't it. Never ever put freon in your car unless it has been evacuated properly because this will destroy your AC system over time and if your AC system is weak or your lines have bad valves and o-rings this will absolutely put your AC to sleep.
