You are very welcome and I appreciate you watching.

Excellent vid from Tone. I won’t even tell you how many times I was the recipient of oil in my face or up my sleeve.

Thank you very much Bill I appreciate it and thank you for watching. Yes the oil is prone to get all over.

This is a good amount of labor, no wonder why new ac replacements are so expensive at shops

Yeah ac jobs are very expensive and in a lot of cases a lot of labor. The parts are not cheap either. Plus you have the evacuation and recharge time. the freon. Thank you for watching.

Good walk-through Tony.

Thank you Steve. I appreciate ya watching.

Do You know how I keep between condenser and radiator clean? open the hook and blow it up in between once in a while and it will be nice and clean.

So, you just added 2oz strait on the low side of the condenser? you never open the drier side? so you didn't put nothing on drier side?

if the system has never opened the O-rings should be fine, not need replacement just a little oil. if the condenser is closed it doesn't come with oil already?

I almost never reuse the o rings.

I'm working on a 2016 kia soul+, and looking everywhere for the relay for the compressor clutch! No one has even reference a relay! Only fuses!

Its locate under the fusible of a/c its "integrated" in the same board that the fuel pump relay

Will be very difficult to know how much oil will be on an old one, for example mine is leaking: 2012 kia soul auto. Once I remove it, I don't think will show the right amount of oil. Do you know how much oil need it? What about the expansion valve, no need replace it?

Service information almost never specifies amount of oil in compressor if no oil comes out. I usually put 4 to 5 ounce in compressor. Only need to replace expending valve if the compressor failed internally

so, totally like 6oz oil. 4 on compressor and 2 on condenser. if I replace the Expansion valve, no need oil?

I do not

Should a flush be done? mine is kia soul 2012, compressor is leaking, just leaking. still cooling and working well. why not replace the drier if the condenser is working fine? the drier will not dry out in 30 minutes, this is said by mechanics. it takes from 2,3 or 4 hours, so we have time enough.

Flush is done if the compressor had an internal failure causing metal in the system. I do not like to replace just the drier bag

Should a flush be done?

Only if compressor failed internally, if. You have metal in the system then yes. If it is just the ac clutch that failed then no flush needed Thanks for watching
