WELL IF YOU HAVE LIQUID ENTERING THE COMPRESSOR NOW, YOU HAVE TO FIX IT SOON.2 THINGS TO DO ,EASYEST IS TO REMOVE SOME FREON UNTILL IT STOPS,DOWNSIDE TO THIS IF YOU DONT HAVE ENOUGHT AREA IN THE EVAP. YOU WILL GO FROM COOLING WITH LIQUID ENTERING THE COMPRESSOT TO NO COOLING AT ALL.SECOND AND THE BEST THING TO DO IS TO ADD 10 FT OR SO TO THE EVAPORATER TUBING.THIS WELL GIVE THE FREON ADDED TIME TO BOIL OFF INTO A GAS.OR IF YOU ARE USING SOMETHING THAT YOU ARE UNABLE TO ADD MORE TUBING TO.TRY TWO THINGS. GET YOURSELF A WATER PIPE HEATER THE ONES LIKE YOU WRAP AROUND WATER PIPES TOP KEEP THEM FROM FREEZING,AND WRAP THE RETURN LINE TO THE COMPRESSOR THIS WILL GIVE YOU ENOUGHT EXTRA HEAT TO BOIL OFF THE LIQUID BEFORE IT MAKES IT TO THE COMPRESSOR
(SOUNDS CRAZY BUT IT WILL WORK WITHOUT BREAKING THE SYSTEM DOWN.SECOND THING IS TO WRAP 10 FT AROUND THE COMPRESSOR ITSELF AND HAVE THE RETURN LINE GO AROUND THE COMPRESSOR BEFORE IT GOES INTO THE COMPRESSOR.THIS WILL MAKE SURE YOU GET ALL THE FREON BOILED OFF AND HELP COIL THE COMPRESSOR.
I HOPE THIS HELPS
