Tbh, there's not a lot that you can get wrong with regassing a/c, so I'd be pretty confident that even a trained monkey could do it!
The machines now will remove, vacuum and regas the system whilst you do other stuff.
Make sure they vac the system for a good 20-30 minutes minimum though as...
Don't be put off by the BC's. They're a good bit of kit from what I've seen. Definitely worth a look.
Spax - your right don't bother.
AVO's I've had no experience with so can't comment.
Ast's are a great bit of kit. The purchasing of them is somewhat to be desired though.
There's no oil in existence that will be suitable for a fwd plate diffed gearbox unfortunately. It's also worth remembering that any gearbox with plate diffs fitted will need to be drained substantially more often than one with an open diff as the plate diffs are continually contaminating the...
That's what I've done for the past 2 weeks mate, just ignored it.
I'll let you know for oulton mate. The lines are simple anyway. I didn't find it difficult to pick up at all.
We shall see mate.
That'll have the older style plates in then still mate, so the noise is part and parcel of a gripper I'm afraid. The newer plates have oil grooves in them to allow a small amount of lubrication to stop the creaking/clunking at slow speeds.
The settings will be causing some of the aggression as...
Redline MTL is what I've run in a Quaife diffed/Quaife straight cut gearbox before and it worked extremely well. Yeah, quaifes ain't a plate diff, but it showed no signs of wear in the box after a full season of 400+bhp/lbft abuse and I used to knock the s**t out of it too.
Don't put it in the box is my advice. It'll f**k the synchros or gear dog teeth, if not both mate. The castrol B373 is too slippery for them from what I've seen of the jc5's that have run on it.
Cheers.
Who you calling a tart! Lol! Should be collecting your rad on Friday btw. It's been done since the weekend, but currently don't know whether to s**t or go blind with being so busy.
Well now I know what you look like I'll be able to keep an eye out for you too! Friends on bookface too...
