can someone help me please loldoes not replacing a dryer cause a new hose to pop off? only asking because>found hole on low pressure side hose>replaced hose>evac'd, charged up to proper psi on both sides>hose popped off on bottom side of new LP hose>put it back on, made sure it was on hopefully>evac system, charge system, checked ambient temp>new hose pops off again near firewall>read more>always replace dryerSo, I have a new hose that is popping off, and also I didn't replace the dryer. So now I'm thinking I should still replace the dryer, but idk if it's affecting things or not. I could reattach the new hose on the top side, maybe it just wasn't really on on either side, but, I am worried I will replace the dryer too, and charge it up again, and it's just gonna pop off again because it's just a shit hose.
>>2845584Probably just a shit hose or user error... How long was the system without a charge with the old hose with the hole? If it's been wide open for some time then I'd throw a new dryer at it. If it was for a super short duration of time, or if the system leaked down but still had positive pressure then fuck it and run the same dryer.
is there a clip on retainer or what for this hose? or are you using a hose clamp and duct tape? I rember being a dipshit and removed a retainer for a spring lock ac connection and the bitch shot the fuck off and hosed the entire engine bay with ac oil. not a good day. at least it was in the before time when r134 wasn't the same price per ounce as silver.
