maybe this belongs here, maybe not. what type of compressor are in our trucks? I know they are scroll, but are they hermetic? only reason i'm asking is hermetic compressors used the refrigerant to cool them and my coolant is totally gonzo, I had an accident and took the line off the compressor and whooosh i got hit in the face with r134. so the system is completely empty, but my question is, will the compressor burn up now since it has no juice flowing through it?
it just dawned on me that the compressor will not kick on due to low pressure, which in my case, I have no pressure, so i would imagine its fine and wont require me to remove and put a non a/c belt on. eh, correct me if i'm wrong.
