Do I Have to Drain Out All the Air Out of My Air Compressor When I'm Done Using It Or Just the Water

Feel free to leave the air in there, that is what the tank is designed for. Let it drain until you do get some air coming out, this will insure you get out all of the water. Remember, stored air is stored energy. When you let the air out you waste all the electricity it took to make it.

1. Does a compressor still run when the heat is on in your car?

Your A/C compressor will only be engaged with either the A/C is on or the defrost function. It will not engage with the heater on, or the fan

2. I have a 2003 dodge stratus ac compressor wont turn on?

I've got good news and bad news. This can be fixed, but it needs to go to an A/C shop. The A/C draws an ENORMOUS amount of amperage to start the compressor. Once the compressor is on, then you will be drawing much less current. You must stop now, before you overload the entire electrical system and burn through batteries like match sticks. DON"T screw with the compressor itself. It has coolant under pressure which could blind you, seriously!.

3. Air condition repairman installed a surge protector as part of a repair on a compressor?

No, a surge protector would only be installed on the line side of the system to protect the entire unit. Same way a multi strip surge plug is used in one location for computers, fax's, printers and modems, ect... Sounds more than likely they installed a Wagner Torque Plus relay used for hard starting older compressors with extra starting torque or should have?

4. how do you know if a broken refrigerator is the thermostat or the compressor. the motor is runnin , not cold.?

the thermostat is what controls the temperature in a refrigerator, thus in relation to you question your thermostat has gone bad. this can easily be replaced

5. How to find out if an house AC unit compressor is working?

An easy way is to feel if the larger copper line is cold and the smaller one is warm. Also, you can hear it. If the air is not cool, the condenser may have no power. You will need voltmeter or multimeter to test it. See if the breaker has tripped.

6. does anyone know a compressor for a mercedes benz C 280 1995?

Clk,slk and c200/230 are all supercharged. You will also need an auxiliary belt, maybe an inlet manifold and possibly the ecu re written to include the compressor. Unless of course you were asking about an aircon compressor, in which case you just need to match the numbers on your old unit. In either case try breakers and merc specialists.

7. 2007 Toyota Yaris, 8k miles, air conditioner has stopped working?

I have an '06 Corolla and had a similar problem. Vents open, blower on, temp set to 50% cold, only it was not getting cold....then I realized that I forgot to press the "AC" button to turn the system on. ...so is it possible you might have forgotten to press the AC button? If that is not the case, it is most likely a refrigerant leak in one of the hoses. All it takes is a microscopic pinhole to cause this sort of problem. The leak can also be from a malfunctioned part in the A/C system, probably the coil or compressor. In the case of the A/C system, Toyota does not make those parts so they have to rely on the supplier to provide quality parts.

8. Why does my compressor bog down at low pressure?

This is the same thing that happens when you use an extension cord of insufficient gauge to power a compressor, as you say, it's insufficient power. Of course, it will try to pull sufficient power, and if it succeeds, probably light the extension cord on fire

9. My central air isn't cold. The outdoor compressor ran all day but the blower didn't. Is my compressor broken?

If the condensing unit ran all day without the blower, there's a very good chance the evaporator coil is a block of ice. How long did you give the coil a chance to thaw out before you turned the A/C back on after repairing the shorted wire? If you did not give it long enough, go to the thermostat and turn the system off. Set the "on/auto" switch to "on" so that just the blower runs. You might need to let it run a few hours to ensure all the ice is off the evaporator coil. Then, you can put it back to auto and turn on the A/C
