A little extra time spent tonight on Prayers Up!!!

Zipping down I 79 Southbound this afternoon when I saw ahead of me what looked like someone pushing a Motorcycle down the edge of the Interstate!!! Stopped and Mature Gentleman was pushing A 99 softtail uphill!!! He had bought it in Pittsburg and was heading for Oklahoma!!! The thing had sat a while before he started out and it seemed to be having fuel problems. More of the stuff they call Gas Now!!! Got him a rollback and ride to Charleston. Had no tools in car!!! Gonna put some back in there Tomorrow!!! I know I could have had that thing running in 20 minutes. At least I helped him git on down the road!! Gave him Site addy!! Hey George where Ya At???

Prayers brother.

New one arrives Thursday!!!

Wandering thru garage. What a MESS!! Prayers Up!!!

:sign yeah that::sign yeah that:

I did add a tap and I'm not "running" completely blind on this one. I used to "Run' with a very good Fridge & HVAC man. He was great in his field (Brother-in-Law Gone now) He taught me a lot but kept me around on his "Job" because of my work ethics back then. Need to climb thru a crapinfeasted Sub-basement to fix something?? If it needed to be done in those days I didn't hesitate. He was very good on refrigerators and I even had my own set of gauges to do this right but somewhere along the line somebody wanted them more than I did . When this thing acted up at 1st I started thinking Freon. I was probally wrong as I discovered the compressor was not running. Long story was I coukld feel a slight vibration in compressor (from Fan??) and BIL had told me new ones ran so smooth & silent it was hard to tell if they were running but anyway I didn't replace starter until after I had add Tap and attempted to recharge. Without proper gauges!!! If I had replaced starter first it might have cured it but talked myself into Freon!! Sometimes I'm not too bright!!!! After I "Fixed" it the first time with starter & freon it would cool but Too Much!! Had it turned down as far as it would go and at times it still tried freezing stuff in the fridge side. The other morning it just quit cooling completely. No warning just stopped. It seems to be running fine. I did hear the starter trying to kick the compressor on a few times just before it died but I'm pretty sure compressor is running now. 68 in the thing this morning.

BILL?? I know....I know we gottta pay for everything.........BUT????

I tinkered with a set til I got them unlocked when they acted like that. Don't really remember how I got them unlocked just tinkered til they unlocked. Them removed the locks took them apart cleaned and greased and put them back togather. Worked like new ones!!! A good winters day job!!

Unplugged it for the night. I'll hunt for my adapter in the morning and dump a little more ga in it and go fridge hunting in the afternoon....:bang head: I have learned ONE thing. I am NOT a refrigerator repairman!!!!

Line from condenser is warm and line exiting compressor is cool but doing nothing as far as cooling. Figure it has to be Low???

Played with it and got it started. It ran for about 6 hrs but didn't cool at al. Temp in fridge 60 F. Can't find my adapter to dump more gas into it. I think I left it where Warden could put it away... I've tinkered so much with it a new one might be smartest way to go. I've got it running fine now but it just Runs & Runs and doesn't cool.

Do think I would have already blown on this one!! You don't just go to a bigger fuse you find the problem!! And you paid to get carbs fixed??? It seems they caused problems and need to find someone that can fix them but I don't think they have that person.

Unpluged it for about 3 hrs. Plugged it back up and it seems to be running and I think compressor is working. Probally not but...... I'll keep a watch on it for a while. We were going to go fridge shopping this evening!!! Wait & See.....

Now 2 & 2 is 22 !!! That ought to be one strong starter!!! Hit the button and HANG ON!!!

I can still remember giving Lil Yammer a fridge box when he was around 10. I made a remark something about That would make a nice Tree House!! Still don't know how he got that thing Up There!! But I remember the chewing from the Warden!!!! " You told him to WHAT???" I DIDN'T Honey it was Just A Thought!!!!

Got it unplugged for couple hrs and its probally off to store. House was built with very small fridge space and makes it hard. 34 inch width is about all we can take and the Warden likes that black wrinkled finish. Not sure that is even out there. I was trying to pile up a little cash for something special and this knocks it down again!! Ain't retirement and that dinky check fun!!

:sign yeah that::sign yeah that::sign yeah that: But the Turtle Wax is Great to clean it up!! Seal it with???

Late last spring my 14 yr old Kenmore fridge quit cooling. After scratching my er...head for a while I figured low on gas. Added gas still didn't work. Dug a little deeper and Start relay was out. Replaced it and it RAN!!! since then I have never been able to get setting just right My thoughts were too much gas in it. Had very poor way of measuring what I put in.. It would freeze stuff in fridge or freezer would thaw out. This morning it just went belly up. Start relay is kicking but compressor not starting up. Should I just dump the thing bite the bullet and buy a new one??? I unplugged the thing and going to let set for couple hrs. One thought I had was if I had got gas level wrong it could have finally settled in compressor and froze it up??? Would that happen?? I'm thinking I need to just dump it and buy a new one!!! If it ain't one thing its another or10!!!!

Cold outside this morning. Not cold in fridge!! It never ends!!! Prayers Up!!!

As Orlin says the Old Turtle Wax Chrome cleaner is Cheap and very hard to beat. A little elbow grease and it does a great job.

I'm in the same boat Steve. Sitting in the garage waiting on me. It doesn't look hard but I think I may have the wrong pieces to hook up to the axel. It has spent Too much time sitting there.

If that one don't slow ya down for a bit ya better see where ya misplaced your heart Puc. Great One. Craig I spent a little time discussing this thing with the man today. Prayers Up!!!

Good One.

Cold this morning. Got to shovel car out after plough buried it!!! Prayers Up!!!
