[DeTomaso] What says the 'Collective' about a 'Slugger'

Interesting....
If the compressor is "oil locked", I wonder how does spinning about 30 times
in 1/2 second, cut it off for 1/2 second, before doing it again actually
helps.

Subject: [DeTomaso] What says the 'Collective' about a 'Slugger'

Have been having trouble with my air in my LS powered RX-7.   I have 
been through 3 different mechanics and compressors in the last 2 years.  
A good friend and retired mechanic mentioned the other day I might want to
look into a 'Slugger' in conjunction with my next compressor and dryer
install.  A 'Slugger' is a small electronic device to vary the ground and
applied voltage to a compressor on initial start of the compressor.  He
claims that the oil will build up and drain back into a low mounted a/c
compressor after it sits idle for a while.  The same location as a GM LS
install and also a Pantera.

Was wondering if anyone had used one of these devices and if it has been
successful or not?

Have had consistent problems with the air in the 'P' cars but hasn't been
attributable to the compressor.


They are only about 35 bucks on e-play, so I am thinking about trying to 
save the valves in the new compressor.

Just wondering?
