How about the basics: Is the high-pressure line hot and the suction line cold? You said pressures were OK but could the high pressure be too high and low pressure too low? That might indicate a plugged system or defective expansion valve. My FL HVAC guy ALWAYS replaced the expansion valve when he did any major work (like compressor replacement). As I recall, the expansion valve on a 126 is under the driver-side dash near the car's center and it's behind the glove box on a 123. It's hard to replace only because of the contortions required to reach it and possible frozen B-nuts. You do NOT want to round off those nuts by forcimnf them. -----Original Message----- From: mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com [mailto:mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com] On Behalf Of Craig Sent: Thursday, July 26, 2012 3:02 PM To: mercedes@okiebenz.com Subject: Re: [MBZ] 787 transition training On Thu, 26 Jul 2012 00:59:48 -0400 (EDT) relng...@aol.com wrote: > From a pilot friend.

Uh, no. 1.4 megawatts, maybe, but not 1.4 gigawatts. That represents 1.9 million horsepower, not counting the efficiency of converting mechanical energy to electrical. That also does not include the power required to move the plane through the air.
