Is the suction line suppose to be crimped on this or did the previous owner have this messed up? He had a serviceman come in to fix compressor and then could never get it to run right. It has been sitting for 2 months and he gave it to me. They have since moved. Am I correct in my thinking to that being the reason it won't get cold

But correct me if I'm wrong please. Shouldn't the process line be crimped and suction line be hooked to system for circulation of refrigerant?

I may be wrong but I think on this compressor that is the process line.

There is an arrow pointing at it saying suction. On a video I saw it says the embraco compressor has the processing line on the right side looking at compressor. So am I wrong in saying the service person hooked up the wrong line to system?

From what you say it does sound like it is hooked up incorrectly.

I just cannot see how a tech would do this but I guess stranger things have happened.
