    Re: Tricky pipe repair

    I think that we ought to post more of these repairs. Some of the ones I've done maybe ought to have been scrapped.

    Got a particular nasty one coming up with a failed TEV (MOP) needing replacement. As it's buried in the middle of the GSHP and it looks like I've got to remove the compressor to get to it, I'm thinking of taking a Large Flask and extra sandwiches.....

    Frank, i fully recommend the extra sandwiches route, possibly with cake as a backup
