Powerflite PFX1350 Can I bypass coils question
« on: December 09, 2010, 08:57:08 pm »
Hi all

Got a problem with my powerflite today ( probably caused by the frost )

Its sprung a leak from the left side copper coil ( that wrap rond the vac motors ) Can I simply bypass these coils altogether ? Got a busy few days and really don't want to cancel the weekend work, was going to call at Pirtec tomoz as the connections I want to join are both male.

Did take a photo of this ( while lying in the snow earlier ) but cant get the bloody thing off my phone !  ;D GOT IT NOW

Hope everyones doing ok, not been on for a while.

Take care

Paul

Why not? it's only a glorified heat exchanger.

Those hoses are only held on with Jubilee clips. Simple job to take off the fittings, find a peice of tubing same diameter as inside of hose, fit hoses to tube and re-tighten Jubilee's.

Yes it can be done.

Call Dave at Amtech he will tell you how.
