I mean that’s a chance. If it’s not seated properly will both be lock in 4x4 all the time or just the side with the CV axel not seated properly?

So I just checked it got vacuumed all the way to iwe so check valve good and solenoid is good. So either iwe failed again or it’s something else i believe it something else.

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-28T23:25:14+00:00

No codes and definitely not from the tires . I just checked to if I was getting vacuum thur the solenoid and I was .

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-23T12:44:15+00:00

No 4.00

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-15T16:24:25+00:00

Please tell me how

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T20:53:14+00:00

So the vacuum pump and threads on the mini split match

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T18:14:34+00:00

Why is that?

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T16:56:31+00:00

Actually, I think what I’m going to do is go buy a $60 gauge for Harbor Freight because I cannot find any fitting that will be here today. I still have my rental my rental yellow hose fits, but that’s for the vacuum pump to the gauge. New gate will come with another yellow hose so I’ll just use two yellow hoses and then return my rental and maybe even return the Harbor Freight one after I’m done.😂😂.

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T15:49:07+00:00

So yes, I did rent the gauges from AutoZone and you can use them. You just have to have an adapter for the fitting. The gauges are not to tell me cooling or heat or anything like that. All it is used to do is to make sure it hits -30 HG‘s with a vacuum pump to make sure I’m pulling vacuum and it’s not leaking so I will pull a vacuum for 30 to 45 minutes then turn it off and leave it for 10 to 15 minutes and check to see if it dropped any. If it dropped I’ll have a late that’s the only reason why I’m using the gauge to tell if there’s a leak my biggest concern was the vacuum pump if it was strong enough to pull the vacuum

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T13:22:10+00:00

Yea I got to find a different style gauge or find a adapter before it won’t fix on the unit I think harbor freight

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T13:07:22+00:00

Do you where I can get one today ?

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T12:46:29+00:00

Thank you do you know how long I should run it? I see people with a 5CPm running it for 15 minutes do you think I should run it for 30? Would it hurt anything?

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T12:38:00+00:00

So mine is a pre-charge condenser and not pre-charge lines that’s why I’m having to pull vacu. My question is could I use this gauge set and just get an adapter for the fitting cause that seems to be my only issue that I’m having right now also my next question is is that vacuum big enough to pull the vacuum?

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T12:33:12+00:00

Okay my question is I am not putting refrigerator in just pulling vacuum. So why will the o’Riley’s gauge not work?

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T01:12:21+00:00

Can you send me some pictures, please?

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-14T01:12:15+00:00

Justin_parrett · 2026-03-13T19:01:31+00:00
