Sometimes I question the odd ideas I have.....and then I come around here.

Once the refrigerant is in a gaseous state the only way it can go back to a liquid is be compressed and sent through the condenser. A properly filled A/C system will not cause slugging. Over filled

You guys creating your own weather like nassholes with their supposed rocket engine tester I thought they were supposed to cycle but very little, mostly staying on. But I do think too much
I've always pondered why the AC dryer/accumulator hanging on the firewall is so close to the exhaust. Logic tells me that this wouldn't be a great design when you're asking the condenser to cool the freon down so it can return into the evaporator...only to have it pass right next to a 800-900* exhaust along its way. Seems kinda counter productive...
Anyways, I had some extra heat insulation material for protecting things from direct heat and thought, why not wrap it around the dryer/accumulator to better protect it from the hot exhaust. Is there something I'm missing? Would this be a problem I'm unaware of? Would this even help? I've heard of people wrapping their AC lines with insulation material to help cool the AC, but not the dryer. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks.
