Well, you weren't there. Guess all you want, but restoring the
efficiency of the unit was simply by cleaning it.

One I did a couple years ago, the unit was drawing about 9.5
amps,a nd hardly cooling. I cleaned it, and the current draw
went
down to about 8.5. The fellow said it was the first time in
years
the unit shut off cause the house reached temp. I'm sure I
saved
him a lot of money.

You're right about cleaning. But don't go relying on your test
equipment;
cleaning didn't cause that, something else did.
