Not done any installs or servicing for a few years either?

 

[lame plumber]

pop back to college and do some revision

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

most in my experience learn nothing on a cpa course,your quickly put through it,it would not hurt if you lads gave the op some pointers,not sarcasm being helpful for a change wont hurt

 

[lame plumber]

okey dokey, buy the corgi cpa guide, step by step on how to use one and most analysers have full instructions and explanations

thats fair enough lame but everyone needs a helping hand sometimes,and we can deduce this is probably not a diyer if they have splashed out on a analyser

Just to play devil's advocate, could be an illegal trying to look legit with a cheap 2nd hand FGA...

OP - why not increase your post count to 10 and ask REDSAW or Gas Man to join the private GSR forum. Then we can discuss and help with pleasure..

tending to think it was more keen diy with money

 

[stevetheplumber]

ive done cpa and know bugger all its probably the biggest waste of time but you have to do, it all they teach you is where to stick it and the action levels
you can obviously compare your results to whats in the mi's but as to actually understanding the figures i know zilch bi would love to have it explained in simple terms but every one here seems to want to take the **** and knod wisely like its some big secret
i know this should be in the gsr section so how about you clever buggers putting up a sticky to enlighten us all

 

[lame plumber]

buy the books and have a read it all gets clearer then, if you did oil, oftec explain things quite well in their manuals

 

[stevetheplumber]

save me the book money lame stick it all up for us all to share not much call for oil round here

 

[lame plumber]

aaagh I just advice where to look and the books are in the van and I dont like going out in the dark. All you need to know is the co2 levels and co/co2 % to work, the rest is lots of maths and how the machine does it for you, clever little things.

even if your a GSR from the 1st of april you must be ticketed even if its a crap course you must attend and get it on your gas card

 

[wetdrip]

Sometimes I don’t recognise you boys for the dear, sweet natured people I know you to be.:smile5:

 

[Dutchie79]

GSR/CPA trained or not, if you don't know how to use it, then don't use it.

If you have bought one and are just starting out, do more training on it man, it's your friend, it will make you money but you won't be able to sleep at night unless you KNOW what you are doing is exactly what you SHOULD be doing!!!!!!!
