    who sells yellow jacket tools in uk



    Since SWM changed they've stopped selling Yellow Jacket tools. Anybody know who else stocks them as I am trying to get hold of a superheat/ subcooling tool. (can't afford digital gauges)

    Thanks

    Hello Grizz,

    The tool is the yellow jacket valve removal/repair tool with the insertion thermometer. (i.e. to measure vapour/liquid temp instead of surface temp.)

    Although I might contradict my first post and get some digital gauges (system analyser) after all, as I have been reading some good reports.

    p.s. cheers Wardy for UTD Ref.

    Trash.
    Thanks for the info, sounds very interesting.
    Any further info from any of the guys would be good.
    I am definitely interested.

    Wardy I used to assume as well, Now I am just careful as to who I offer to help.

    Trash, Grizz - another instrument worth checking out is the Fieldpeice SSX34.
