Frigoboat - The Smoking Gun (or compressor)

This is a tale of the death of a Frigoboat keel cooler installation.


I killed it. Whether it was running the keel cooler out of the water, or
just the conditions in the yard, Clay, my referred pro - and by now close
acquaintance, as I "assisted" in his work aboard - in consulting with
several other refrigeration professionals, learned why our efforts - which
included the welding in of a cap tube filter, adding a filter dryer,
evacuation and recharge, flushing the system through both service ports,
followed by a nitrogen blast, isolating the evaporator (the suspected
problem point, which was true, but not the "real" problem) and successive
nitrogen blast/suck vacuum on both sides of the evaporator, alternating,
repeatedly, to no avail) - were fruitless.

If you believe that crap about the oil somehow changing
state and clogging up the works then you're very easily
led around by the nose. Trained by Lydia? :-)

And yet again the intrepid Capt. Neil advances into the fray.... and
****es all over his toes.

You ignorant ass, yes oil does "change state" when over heated, and if
you had the brains of a cockroach you would have looked into the facts
before you posted, rather then make a stupid statement and get
corrected.

or any of the other 27,000 returns that google shows when searching
for "change in overheated refrigeration oil"



All that is but a non sequitur, Brucie-boi!

Unfortunately, you ignorantly chose to ignore the main point
of my response which point is, don't believe a bunch of crap
about overheated oil being the problem. *If* there, indeed, was
overheated oil then that indicates the fail-safe circuitry for an


I took a point that you clearly stated, I even highlighted your
statement, with quotation marks, to show just what part of your post I
was replying to. What are you doing now? Trying to weasel out of the
fact that you wrote it?

Or in other words one could, based on your latest assertion, determine
that you post something about which you apparently know nothing about
50% of the time and we should expend effort to try and figure out
which part of your statement is correct and which part is the lie?

Amazing! You lie half of the time and apparently now want applause for
telling the truth half of the time.

The part you seem to be missing is that you, a non cruiser, are
slanging Skip, who is a cruiser. You really belong to a site entitled
something like "floating Trailer Trash" or perhaps "Permanently Moored
Sailor".
