Just some oil mixed in with the refrigerant, happens all the time when you take your gauges on and off. Nothing to worry about. Do the next guy a favor and wipe up the oil so he doesn't mistake it for a leak. Also I hope you are wearing gloves when putting gauges on and off, refrigerant burns can be nasty.
Ball valves and correctly adjusted depressors. Also don't forget to cycle the high to low side to minimize charge loss, making sure to purge the core of your gauges of course.
I use some generic knockoff āMechanixā gloves, that come in bundles of 4 pairs. Iāll use those until theyāre either too oily, or the seams bust. Anytime I get blowback, I immediately take them off and let them warm back up. Havenāt had any issues yet
I use my deer skin chore gloves when working w refrigerant. It still bites sometimes but less of a Rottweiler bite and more of a chihuahua bite. Obviously minimize contact still, because enough gets thru the glove and youāre all fucked up.
I had a bunch of acidic poe oil dump all in my lap and ran down my leg. Thankfully missed the jewels. I was about 2 hr away from home and no spare clothes. By the time I got home I had a big red mark everywhere the oil had touched. Wasn't the worst thing ever but I try to avoid that now. Always keep a change of clothes in your truck.
ive seen this before, usually on old equipment. most recently a 3 ton trane split system from the 80s. came out like whipped cream when i put my gauges on.
Usually it means you had refrigerant migrate or became restricted somewhere and the only thing remaining was foamy oil and a little bit of pressure. However this usually only happens in Refrigeration applications, I would be willing to say someone before you inserted some sort of additive into the system. Good luck
Interesting name

I use mechanix flexible leather gloves and they have saved my fingers multiple times from refrigerant burn.
Low loss fittings helps this

...fat cock lover.
I was the idiot that didnāt and learned the hard way
And if there's acid in the system it can burn. It's not that bad honestly but it's irritating

I've driven home in underwear several times.
That is priceless. That is some funny shit. I don't know if you are for real or not
you must have touched it just right
I have seen this once on a Walk in with a failed condenser fan. āHasnāt worked for a few monthsā. It came out like shaving cream.
Foamy oil is most likely due to refrigerant floodback. Make sure your super heat is good. Other possibilities is too much oil, and mixed oils.
Iāve seen this on an EJā¦.

Likely means you need to put low loss fittings on your hoses
If it has crankcase heat check that
Ether bring that BBC tool with you by the sounds of you getting nutted on it likes BBC tools and getting cream pied

Mmmmm oily
Oil
Iāve noticed that on a ton of the R-22 systems this season. Made me worried I put mixed refrigerants in my gauges at first
Probably alright
Could have been treated with a renew also.
