In this video, I show one way to drain as much as possible of the old / contaminated oil from a "disposable" sealed fridge compressor.
As with most mechanical devices, compressors are generally very reliable until operated outside of their design limits; or when the oil within the compressor no longer protects the moving parts from wear and corrosion.
Many "re-used" compressors fail because they were removed from a system and left open to air. Once exposed to air and moisture, degradation of the the oil results; particularly with more modern POE oil equipped models. If this oil is replaced before putting the compressor back in service, the chance of longterm success is improved.

Reuse is always a good thing. Wish this happened more often, but we live in a throwaway world. :(

Exactly. "Fix it, patch it, MAKE IT DO. This was the watch-phrase during the 2nd world war. Thank God for people like you, showing folks get-by-in-hard-times alternatives.💪🏻💪🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I know I’m late to this party, but just had to comment. I’ve watched maybe thousands of DIY KZfaq videos, and very often I do read many of the comments. I got sick of the anonymous keyboard warriors constantly complaining about this or that. It got to where I was getting really belligerent with some of them, shaming them terribly, especially as they were there just to cause hate and discontent. I got more nice comments from the creators of the videos for that. It just burns my a$$ that our society has degraded to the point that it just seems acceptable to flame people from anonymity, just because you can. Well many of them got the same treatment from me. But that’s not something I wouldn’t have done in person. There’s no excuse for behavior like that, and if it happens around me, I’ll call it out. On a nicer note, this is one of the more technically savvy videos I’ve seen in a long time. I just love how you worked professionally, methodically, safely, and set the best example of a teacher for those looking to learn. Heck I learned a few things, and I did HVAC work for many years. Excellent video. I also liked how you explained to each detractor why you did what you did, and shut them down. Great work!

Another great video, very informative. The supply chain issues are crazy, chips that TI and National Semiconductor have been making for almost 40 years like the TL-082 Op Amp were back ordered for more than 3 months.
