If the noise is coming from the back of the fridge, it could be the compressor is dying. Its cycling and over heating shutting off then trying to restart a short time after once the thermal overlaod resets. You hould call a service tech sooner than later.

My Bosch Fridge makes a loud gurgling sound every twenty five minutes even after freezer fan &emotion were replaced.

It's a normal noise! When the liquid refrigerant becomes less pressurised, usually when the thermostat clicks off,, it still bubbles through the system until the pressure equalises.

What would cause a poulan chain saw to quit running after about ten minutes of cutting

The only temperature sensitive part I can think of is the condenser. In most saws it is under the flywheel with the points. Some newer saws have an electronic ignition module. If that is the case the module must be replaced.

Lookfor a light on the dash that says SECURITY or ANTITHEFT. If you see this light, that is a sign of a failed or failing antitheft system, which will disable your vehicle. This link explains

My dodge durango stop suddenly , the engine was off,tried to cranck it but not starting ,after ten to twenty minutes started .i drove for ten km.then off again. kindly advice

Sounds like your fuel pump is going out. Next time it doesn't start, cycle the key from off to run position (not start) and listen for the soft hum of fuel pump. If it's not there, you need a new pump.

Loud humming noise as fridge is running

Sounds like the freezer fan is rubbing some wires or possible some foam insulation around the fan. I would look into the freezer compartment fan and go from there. The fan Will Shut off when you open the doors. Let me know how you make out and if you need anymore help.

Thanks,
Bill

Frost on the low side line means the system is overcharged (too much freon).  Look on the tag insided the fridge and it will tell you how much freon it holds.  Usually 4.25-5.50 ounces on average.  The loud noise sounds like you have air in the system.  I would evacuate, from the high side while running, and let it run empty for 5-10 minutes.  Then while running put the valve core back in the high side.  Then unplug the fridge and charge with proper amount of freon thru the high side.  Wait about 5-10 minutes and plug back in.  Normal low side pressure should be 0-3 psi.  This is a good indicator of the proper amount of freon in a good working system.
