Could care less about your shirt or knuckles to be honest with you. You tossed aside a perfectly good answer like it was nothing.... that's the only inane thing going on here.

I tossed aside a WRONG answer. It wasn't "perfectly good".

Same here lol. Both White and ProjectSHO89 know what they're talking about. ProjectSHO89 has been around as long as I have...perhaps longer lol. Both are usually spot on. But yea, not following the argument....confused ?

Yeah, dude took me completely wrong - I was just joking with him. Both cases of diagnosis are completely viable, but he said MBB was wrong. If you don't have enough freon in the system (or have a bad LP switch), bypassing the low pressure switch will tell you that the clutch and gap are still good. Hitting it with a stick and pushing it closer to the magnetic field is also a great way of diagnosis. Personally, I'd first rather stick a wire in the harness before tapping it with a stick.....

BTW, Brew - he just barely joined. Does he have another account?

Your assuming , like OP, that punching accelerator had something to do with it.

Id say thats just as likely to be coincedence, or mistaken perception, unless theres info being held back. Like doing own shoddy work, overfilling system, bad bearing making noise, compressor been making noise, etc . Often a trail to sudden clutch friction failure. Gradual wear tends to work intermittently when cool.

Coil can just simply burn out, but that would have nothing to do with acceleration either

Low press would kick on, then off immediately as well, and perform poor, freeze up before finally stopping working. Unless rupture hose, etc and have big leak.

How good is peoples perception or attention?
