How do I recover the freon from my 2002 suburban without a recovery system?

 

[Provience]

Vent to atmosphere

 

[M92PV4U]

Vent to atmosphere

Well yeah, but I want to put it back in.

 

[Gtrplyr78]

Find a friend with the equipment needed

A couple of wookie handjobs and it will likely be free

 

[Weasel]

Well yeah, but I want to put it back in.

that why they make recovery equipment.

Ymmv

 

[yozsi]

Ain't gonna do it for less than a few hundred dollars of equipment. Vent that shit to the atmosphere

 

[Provience]

"Recover"

Yeah, from nature

 

[Roktoy829]

If you can come across a empty freon container. Pull a vacuum on the container, then let the vacuum pull the freon out of the system.

But there has to be some hack fuck way of doing it.

I have a empty 30lb tank with connectors at the top and bottom.

I have that, my dad said that it didn't work when he tried it. Possibly I need a check valve in the line.

The compressor in the truck is dead.

Yes

But we do have other systems too. So I guess that I need to rob a electric compressor out of something.

Green knob check valve, black knob no check valve. Gonna need to find an older tank for this to work. “Hypothetically” (looks around for epa man).

What about the 12oz cans?

 

[Provience]

What about the 12oz cans?

If it won't take 30#s it won't get cold.

It's got to work hard when ambient is 65* year round

 

[Chkn]

Keyboard duster. R152. Cheap AF when compared to R134

Hold a trash bag over it to collect the vapor, put bag in the freezer so it becomes liquid again, dump it in a gutted fire extinguisher, pressurize extinguisher with an air hose, reinstall freon

I want to come watch him install the 30lbs in the system.

Besides, if you recycle the freon. It will lose some of it's cooling ability and it won't cool as well as it did.
