Line you cut was discharge line connected to two discharge mufflers built into the body. Funny looking port is the internal relief valve. White piece is a suction muffler/receiver that lets it slurp some oil mist to lubricate the head and help the reeds seal. Valve plate has two suction and two discharge reeds located over the top of the piston in a cross shape. Suctions are fed from the plastic muffler and discharges go via body ports alongside the head to the built in mufflers. That compressor definitely suffered continuous floodback from a thermostat failing to shut down, leaky solenoid valve, or stuck open txv. Curious if you tested it for proper pump-down after putting in the new compressor. Nice to see a teardown of a smaller recip. 👍
Noticed you pulled out the refrigerant, Surely good practice would have been installing a Drier prior to the recovery unit, Eliminating any cross contamination! Nice Van btw👍🏻🇬🇧
I didn't catch what brand that old compressor was but if it was an Emerson/Copeland they're usually pretty well made but sometimes things just fail for no reason at all. I actually was able to tour the Emerson plant in Sidney, Ohio back in 2013 or 2014 as part of the HVAC/R program at UNOH in Lima. It was quite an interesting place to tour.
Great content man. Super clean edit! My thoughts on discolouration of compressor heads was that it usually means they are overheating. Would it overheat with liquid flood back? I would think it’s been running short of gas or too much superheat? But I’m not 100% sure on that, what’s your thoughts?
So did a tech slug the compressor adding refrigerant or something to do with a pump down solenoid not working properly? How did the liquid end up there???
@@brad346326 You bet it is, I'm just too old to climb ladders anymore. I always enjoyed the challenge of troubleshooting the electrical problems, which is what is usually wrong. Good pay and benefits, if you're good at it.
I am glad you got it working ! Enjoyed watching you tear the compressor apart ! It was so satisfying ..
That can opener. Love your subtle humor. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Great video Mr. Bill!! I love taking things apart to see what failed! Helps me learn how they work.
Love the tin opener 🤣
I like using that puddy too. Keeps dryer cool and keeps the service valves cool
Love the video. Also beard game is crazy!
Interesting video Bill ... Nice can opener 🤣🤣🤣 Thx for sharing 👍👍👍
Great vid.👏👏👍that white plastic thing is a suction muffler, the pipe that you cut at the start was the discharge line.
Nice video Bill! Keep them a comin! And good job plugging the merch for Mr Stefanovich 😂
The zz tech man, great video, great explanation about the freezer box.
Real world repair 💪🏽 cool cut away 🤘🏽
Great video, enjoyed the teardown
Love those quick shots
Cordless can openers are awesome and convenient as hell...im still using an old corded can opener thing sucks.
Nice job glad to watch a video from you! Good times from the easy cool guy- the great bearded one! 😂👍🏻👀🎥, 🍻🍻🍻👋🏻🧔♂️🇺🇸😎😎😎😎
I'm gonna need the link to that Compressor Opener

Great video just a question I saw your micron gauge attached to the manifold,would it not be better on the system?itself.

That is the suction line, condensation is probably causing the rusting.
liquid flood back bad bend reed valves so much piston chewed them lock down for sure.
Good job Bill has always.
Great work
Great video thanks for sharing 👍

Is that a can opener at 14:02?
Whoa.
🤘🔥
👍
Good to see more videos from you. #bumdumpling
Is that a muffler of some sort? It has an open port right?
that's exactly what it looked like to me, to kill the noise from outlets.
Did you basically quit making vids now? Don't see much from you anymore...sad
Glad to see your back, and glad I ain't doin it no mo
Is this a good trade to get in to?
