In the first minutes when you checked how much freon was required you said 1.6 lbs but you put 1.4 lbs. What's up

I love " Das ist nicht gut" where you learn German language?
I like your videos so much. For me as a German it seems Florida is hot and sometimes ants live I a car. Last time a was in Florida was 1989. I have a lot great remembers to that time in the Us.
Go on Ray.😉

Oh just pull the dash already 😂They're not that bad. No I'm not a mechanic, but yes I have done it before on my truck. Replaced my heater core and evap core along with one of the refrigerant hard lines, the compressor, and the dryer/filter. Been problem free ever since. Hardest part about it is getting the motivation to do it, and paying for the parts 😂the job itself really isn't hard. It's about 5 or 6 screws on top, few nuts and screws on the bottom, for the dash, and about 5 nuts on the firewall and a couple wiring harnesses to pull (possibly a vacuum tube or two to pull as well) to pull the hvac box. (for mine anyway) granted yours may be a bit harder since you got a dirtymax that takes up the whole engine bay…shoulda got a cummins! 😉 I kidd, I kidd. Long as it ain't a mid 90's chevy 6.5L (injection pump electronics burn out quickly on them due to crap design) or a ford 6.0 (again poor engineering)…they're all decent engines that will last a very long time👍

Need to disable the daytime running lights.

Hi ,i noticed that you didn't ck. the orifice tube in the line for particles, was this checked before you made the video? Great videos Ray!

I'm always amazed at how quiet those Duramax diesels are. It runs like a whisper inside a library.

Don't do drugs Ray.

Ray, I notice you have what looks to be the stock LLY air intake on your truck, do you plan on swapping that out to mitigate the airflow issues that factory intake causes?

Ray, you do know you have competent mechanics working right next to you that you can rope into doing you a favor and tearing the dash apart if it comes to that! You don’t have to do all the hard work!

I understand you don't wanna take the dash apart, however, you could pay someone else to do it! LOL

Waz wondering that Ray went after EVAP 1st and not the Orifice type expansion valve. I'd never found anything but exploded desiccant stuff plugging stuff. Hadn't seen info on congeled oil dye blockage before , no doubt a long term only, creation. You can bet customer vehicle fix would include nu drier, Orifice and complete system flush , fresh re-oil for 'No Come Bak' repair

I thought your truck needed 1.6 lbs. of refrigerant. You put 1.4 lbs. I'm confused.

How sloppy is your steering wheel?

Mmm, PAG oil. One of the lowest on the list of things I'd like to be showered in at work.

The caps were lost forever when you blew off the tray below the windshield wipers with your assault air gun!

You did not change service ports, lol

The 350psi indicates that the condenser is at 173*. The major cause of the high pressure is that the system can’t reject heat. Something is keeping the condenser from being cooled. Fan, plugged condenser fins, accumulation between the radiator and condenser, plugged radiator, something is.. Try running water over the condenser to cool it. A restriction that blocks refrigerant flow would prevent the system from picking up heat out of the cab. The low flow, lack of heat transfer would cause the suction to go low. With no flow( heat) going into the condenser the condenser would be cooled and the pressure would drop to below normal. High pressure in AC systems is heat. A new evap won’t fix it , the same that flushing it didn’t. I’m sure the drop in outlet temp is because the condenser was getting some air. As shown by the drop in high pressure.

Eh there you go you just might have to replace that condenser for the sake of mileage. Oh by the way I like your magic tricks! I learn something new from every video.

I had a very similar problem a few years ago. It seemed to be a restriction as the high side went thru the roof. I've always done my own AC work but hated working with the AL fittings. and the expansion valve was in a bad spot. I took it to a local shop and they hooked it up. The service manager came out and told me my compressor was locked up, I needed a new compressor, evaporator, receiver/dryer and condenser. Over $2.2k. I told him the compressor is NOT locked up because I had worked on it and knew it was fine since the clutch did lock in and it did build a lot of pressure. He went back to talk to his mechanic, came back and said it had a noise when running. HUH? How could it have a noise running if it was locked up? I paid $60 and drove away. Went a small independent guy. He did pretty much the same as you did, which I didn't have the tools to do. $240 later and it still works fine.
Edit I said expansion valve. That show my age. I meant orifice tube. Some terms stick in my head.

Dude I really need some advise from you about my car lol. 2018 tuscan. 175k . Yes drive a. Shit ton. When AC on I had overheating before. Got my temp sensor changed. Seems ok now but my rpms on at idle on drive fall to 500 and come back up to 650 and I feel the engine tremble.

When all else fails I'd love to see "Florida man installs window unit in his dually."

I got rid of a really nice GMC Sierra that needed a complete AC overhaul, evaporator, compressor and Ac condenser. That would have been over 2k, I sold the truck and the guy who bought it was like how much? I found out you have to remove the complete dash assembly and the bench seat to have good access to the evaporator coil and heater coil. You would think GM could have made it easier.

I see you have a jack receiver on the front of your truck. I have one on both ends as well. Handy!

It’s a squirter!!! Was that a clog delete?!!
