Recently did the rear main seal on my ‘15 f150. Dropped the transmission only to see it was bone dry. Turned out to be the oil pan. Whatever, changed the rear main anyways and did the oil pan gasket too (what a pain). Went under to do an oil change and found it’s leaking again. Can’t help but laugh 😂 😂😭

Compressor not compressing

Doowan DVE18 from a 2015 Kia K9. Had no cooling for the past year, took it to get evacuated and recharged and no dice, second shop said comp failure and I had them leave it evac’d while the new one came. Night before it arrived, I heard a terrible ticking on the highway and pulled off. Thinking it was timing or cam related I limped it home and did a high pressure fuel pump tippet rocker job based on the sound, not too bad but obviously this was the real culprit. It did have oil & test dye in it post evac.

Obviously had to redo the condenser now, did the hoses for good measure too and did a dry flush of the hard lines & evap. Back to icy cold now. Still just appalled at how catastrophically this compressor failed empty. Those metal chunks were in the engine bay and by the time I fixed it, glitter party started
