- Welcome to www.buckleysautocare.com.
AC Evaporator Repair. Ford F-250 Lariat. This is one of the biggest units we've serviced in some time. Take a look at what a ruptured or leaking evaporator looks like. You can see these kinds of leaks. You can only test to see if the core is releasing refrigerant. Typically, we can use a "sniffer" to detect a problem or we will witness dye coming out of the condensation tube.
This is a bit of an expense to repair, but after 6 years of service, it should be expected. Remember, AC systems work full time in today's vehicles. That's a lot to ask for considering the environment that the working parts live in.

Nope

YES!!!! These cabin air filters are now available!!!
How much did you charge for that entire job? I would like mine done the same way but have no idea what kind of numbers I would be looking at. Thanks
Depends on year. This unit we had to update the HVAC box. Total came to $2900. $600 of that was the new box. - Greg
@@BuckleysAutoCare how long did it take y'all ta take the HVAC box out?
@@jasonlewis3966 I think it was around 16 hours or so. A good two days. We went step by step to ensure that all components were re-assembled properly including all connectors, grounds and interior components. We did not take any short cuts. We're not a flat rate shop so no rush was needed and this was a very particular client who doesn't want any rattles afterwards.
@@BuckleysAutoCare cool. Y'all ever come across the ford f250s that won't push any air thru the evaporator cause it's junked up with hair n dust cause of no cabin filter?
@@jasonlewis3966 no we really haven't. We try to keep our clients up to date on filters, etc and our area is basically short mileage. This client owns a bus company and is pretty on point with service, etc.
On 08 350's you can take the dash out in one piece without taking all the parts apart. Unbolt it - pull it forward and disconnect the harnesses at the firewall side and out she comes. Why people completely disassemble dashes for this repair is beyond me - makes much more work.
Same thing on the 2010-2015/some 16's.
And it only takes under an hour ta pull that whole dash, plenum box, and front seats and console.
Also........I do this for a living.
And I have made cabin air filters for sale for these trucks.

@@gearheadsautomotiveinmidlandtx I would like some information on adding a filter
@@gearheadsautomotiveinmidlandtx could I buy a few filters from you? I’m replacing my evap core this weekend
What year is the F250 being worked on? I have a 2007 and would like to know where I can find that updated box and it will fit in my 2007 F250
No, he"s working on a newer model. You and I are lucky(!), all that AC stuff is in the engine compartment on the passengers side firewall. No tearing the dash out for any of the heater or AC work!!! There are a few (very few) Utube videos on the years you need to see. And he's a scammer, there are one or two Utube videos on removing the dash etc. on the newer ones and it's actually a breeze if you know how. One video did it in 15 minutes, another in one hour. Kinda like Mishimoto themselves making a video on doing the radiators on your era. The guy removes the radiator support crossbeam. Dieseltechron and others show how to do it without going to all that hassle. My dealers shop manual for my 2001 Chevy Venture says to remove the whole dash and dash subframe, disconnect all the electrical and steering wheel....I did the same job as in this video, removed the HVAC box (I have a video on some of the job, including replacing all the weatherstripping on all the blend doors, 32 feet of it, using hemostats at times) and replaced the evaporator and heater core etc. . I only disconnected the dash pad (the exterior of the dash). It was a bitch finding all the connectors and snag points working "blind", but I did less than half the work the dealer manual said you had to. Watch all the Utube videos you can, and you should read some more of the comments here, it is mentioned what I said about how the dash removal is actually simple on the newer ones. PS, he is also full of it about the "updated" box. It is simply a new one. Notice his giveaway comment about the blend doors and "reassembling", and then he stuttered "from the....." the old box. He had to catch himself before he openly pointed out that the mechanical moving parts were being reused. The only mechanical parts on the box, and therefore the most likely thing to malfunction! On the old one he says some inane comment about "dirt down in there"...
How many hours does this job take
I did it in 16 hours.
Have you ever had to fix a a\c gasket housing leak
16 hours to do that??????!!!!!!! Total time????? That's crazy man. I can blast those suckers out before lunch.
@@jasonmichaellewis7840 sure guy
@@mikem7139 I do it for a living........
Here's ya go.

And.......I'm now selling the cabin air filters for these trucks too.
This guy is full of it. Read the comments...16 hours! Full two days step by step, particular customer.....It's hogwash. Do your homework guys, check out as many videos as you can before buying into any pro mechanics pitch. I worked at an automotive machine shop that did all the work for the San Diego city bus system. As well as a couple dozen independent shops. I've seen this approach to "customer relations" before. Even just read some of the other comments here!
Wap Stabilizing isn't for full length videos....
Try and find that box now will probably be impossible
How much this job????
$1000
At belle tire supply they quoted me approximately 8-9 hour job at $850 including labor and parts and estimated man hours. Also this was ONLY for replacing an a.c evaporator, NOT the entire hvac system
@@aaronautry1981 question is the evaporator and heater core the same equipment I keep getting confuse?
@@bris9984 no they're not the same parts. They're two separate items. But typically, they both exist in the hvac box. Two different roles as well
@@aaronautry1981 for this job do you recommend changing them both or just the evaporator?
Cha ching $$$$$$$
Not a 1k worth job
It's a Ford, even the evaporator tubing fails. Cheap truck.
😂😂😂
Way to much time......try an hour to have that dash removed.
16 hours is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much time. My shop quoted me 5 hours to the exact job condensor compressor and the high pressor line
@@1mandrywallarmytv144 that sounds about right for the condenser the compressor and the line but not the evaporator book time
right it take 15 min tops to remove the dash I remove the box an dash to do sound deader leaving the lines fast to deaden behind it its a hour start to finish I always clean the coils well there out lol it like 10 bolts ant 5 plugs and the stupid FM antenna wire.
I can’t stand these videos. Start to finish on these things are what we looks up these videos for. Thumbs down all the way
I’m glad you don’t like it. It’s not made to show you how to fix it. I don’t teach DIY Class. I make these videos to show some of the difficulties in performing the type of work we do at the shop and what other shops across the country do. If you want to do it yourself, go ahead and learn how to do it. I’m sure you’re talented enough to figure it all out on your own. Go ahead and take a chance. Or, become a pro and learn from the ground up. Like I did and many other professionals. - Greg Buckley
