Cool I want the input. I'm going to talk to my grandfather, he has worked on A/C all his life. I think at one time he said something about putting a tank in warm/hot water to help the gas flow.

But I have one question. I understand the gas flowing from the can of ref. turning into gas as it boils off. However sometimes these things have oil/stopleak. I'm not understanding how the oil/stopleak would turn into a gas in travel.

I'm not at all saying I'm right, but I did my 4cyl tour last year, turning can upside down, and it seems to still be fine. Again, I'm not saying I'm right. And understand what you are saying about liquid ref on the low side.

I wanted to add. Is if the system cycles, or sorta works but low, wouldn't the liquid as it hits the hot gas in the low side change over as soon as it enters the stream?
