I have an older mobile home central air unit that the fan comes on and it does blow air in the house but not cold. The thermostat is set on cool and is on position. Should I hear the compressor kick on as I don’t hear anything other than the fan running??? Thanks

My engine is vibrating, especially when the A/C is running. Is it the harmonic balancer or the air compressor?

It’s a 2008 Chevy Malibu LT. I can feel the engine vibrating while I’m idle, and noticeably even more while the air compressor is on. However, when I’m moving the vibrations are reduced a lot. I’m uncertain whether or not it’s the harmonic balancer or if it’s having to do with the air compressor, maybe both or neither. Any help is appreciated.

TOM D asked:

i want to build a portable gas powered air compressor ( i have already buildt a 60g 110v air compressor for home that works just fine no problems). on regular compressor you plug them inick,turn on the switch and thats it. compressor starts shuts off at regulated psi. while using compressor, pump and starter cuts in at regulated psi. by itself repetes over to keep regulated psi in tank. well if tou have to pull a draw string to start a gas powered compressor and it starts compressing air. what happens when it reaches desired psi or when pressure drops and has to fill up again. do i have to manually start this thing every timepsi gets psi gets low ? or how does it start again without me having to manualy start it? or does it stay running all the time? do i need any special or different valves or something? or just HOW DOES IT WORK?

Robin asked:

I have a carrier air conditioner. For some reason the fan will shut off but the compressor is still running. Then it flips the breaker. I have changed the motor and put on a new one but it keep happening the same way. Does anyone know of anything else that I can do? Are there any web sites that I could check out? Where can I find the wiring schematics? Thank for the help.
