Compressor Oil...

[umzzzzz]

what happens if your compressor leaks and runs out of compressor oil? how will it affect the engine?

[gwapito69]

para san ang compressor?

[artpogi]

are we talking about A/C compressor? if yes, AFAIK, eventually mawawala lamig ng A/C mo because of the leak.

Remember A/C system is a close system, so kung may tagas na langis yan (normally from shaft seals) may lumalabas din na freon yan, eventually mawawala lamig.

Kung mapabayaan mo na mawalan ng langis A/C compressor mo, masisira ang internals ng compressor mo which will either require you to buy a new/surplus compressor or have your compressor overhauled (note: not all type of A/C compressor can be overhauled).

Paki korek na lang po kung mali

on my first car, my compressor was overhauled, tumagal naman ng 2 years, it was a Sanden compressor.

ahhh...sorry po...to those who're asking, we're talking about aircon compressors thanks.

As explained by *artpogi, there will be no more cooling on your A/C and it would be useless to turn it on if that's the case. Have the compressor & your A/C system checked. There might be problems other than the loss of compressor oil.
On the repair / purchase, it boils down to economics IMHO. As long as the cost to repair is far less than the cost of buying a brand new unit or a surplus compressor and parts availability is also one factor to consider.

...pero...will the engine die once the oil is "drained" due to excessive leakage??

no compressor oil has nothing to do with the engine

worst talaga sa a/c compressor if may leak kasi kasama din freon ang ma waste.. malaman lng talaga if wla ng ginaw yung aircon.. masisira din ata yung compressor dahil yong oil ang nag lu-lubricate ng bearings sa loob.. tama ba? anywayz some other shops would directly tell you to replace your a/c with a shocking price but some will just say overhaul lng.


mayroon bah overhauling kit sa a/c compressor? got the same prob here..

[ineedmorehp]

Meron un iba, meron din naman palit. Ako biktima ng palit kasi durog na loob. bwisit na a/c compressor yan! Sabagay after 12 years?! Not bad.

[OTEP]

Separate systems naman ang a/c at engine. Kahit sumabog compressor, aandar pa din engine. Huwag lang mag-stuck up yung a/c pulley kasi yun ang direct link sa engine.

Mawawalan ng lamig a/c kapag nawalan ng oil.

Catastrophic failure na ata pag naubos ng tuluyan ang oil. The only way to find out if it can be overhauled is by opening it up to see what actually got damaged. Kapag yung misming casing na or yung piston ang nasugatan, better get surplus or buy a [ouch] new one.

Surplus a/c compressor ba gano katagal?

OT: ayz dun kina Mang mario. Lintek. haba ng pila bilad kami ng oto sa araw. , Sir otep kilalang kilala ah.

Kelan ka nagpunta? Andun ako nung Lunes, Martes, at kanina. hehehe. Kanina lang kasi ako nagbayad.

Yung surplus ko at least 3 years naman nabubuhay. Mura lang naman ang package deal ng surplus kina Mang Mario. 6 months warranty din.
