How did they recharge it? Did they remove all the freon, evacuate the system and than rechaged it? or did they just checked it and add some in?

It sounds like a compressor to me but again it maybe the injector pump on the engine.

It's hot??? Y ain't seen nuthin yet.

Believe he shared that it was overcharged, Greg.

How old is you Rigmaster? My experience with Rigmaster shops is, you need to splain to them the problem, then tell em, if you can't fix it, don't start on it. We had a case where we paid a large fee just to watch them scratch their AZZ for a few hours without any repair completed.

It sounds like you are saying the a/c kicks in and the engine bogs down and dies. That could mean the off load idle speed isn't set correctly so the load causes it to die. I believe there is a very good Rigmaster shop in Oklahoma City. I don't know any others by reputation so it's probably pot luck where you stop. Good luck.

I guess the thing I am driving at is who overcharged it and what was done to determine that it was overcharged. you have to really overcharged the system for a 14 HP engine to slow down to the point of stalling.

Ray at Espar in Detroit would be a good source for your problem.
Really knows his stuff on the rigmasters

I had my Rigmaster installed at Espar of Michigan. Ray took the time needed to answer my questions and to show me how to use the unit. I would definately recommend them.
