Rotary vs standard compressors

[Xeon th MG Pony]

If you guys refuse to buy recovery units at least buy a recovery cylinder. this is a must. BUy it local, Vacuum it, you will most likely be able to recover all the gas in the system and still be in a vacuum, then swap tanks for a new one and vacuum it even this is illegal but is 100x better then venting

All you need is:
A: Bullet valve
B: A hose
C: A tank (Any that will hold the gas)
D: Vise grips

Procedure:
A: firmly crimp the capillery tube with the vice grips, leave attached!
B: Attach hose to tank and bullet valve (Helps if the tank is vacuumed)
C: Firmly attach bullet valve to the filter dryer.
D: Screw in bullet valve to peirce filter drier shell, purge air from hose.
E: Open tank wide (And put it into a bucked of ice if handy)
F: Turn on fridge and let run as long as possible, Untill compressor is HOT.
G: Close tank and bullet valve and remove, you should have succefully recovered the bulk of the charge and avoid being a total venting loser!

So there is literaly NO excuse not to recover, simply drop off the small tank to a local shop and tell them it's waste refrigerant.

Cost you say? Recovery tanks are so expensive and hard to move you protest? Nope not excuses! here:
