have fun
last time my house AC went out i had my dogs and wife living in my Cabover camper in the driveway (off the truck) since it has AC lol

it was 110 and they never loved that camper as much as they did that day, stupid AC compressor lost its heat strip ( yup a heater coil on the compressor that keeps the oil warm took out the system in 110 temps LOL

I chose to go to the store instead if wrench a little. Wait a couple hours so it's only 98 instead.

It's down to 101 now and storms are popping up everywhere in the area

Do you have it Vacuumed down yet and is it holding. If 134a is about 80% of R12. You should have a sticker on the AC box.

Thanks Frankin5

I had to use the pressure chart on my truck system it's all aftermarket. On my systems, I filled to 5 - 10 pounds under the chart and it worked great. Using the pressure chart as a close reference and a vent thermometer will get you where you need to me. If you overcharge the system, the vent temperature will rise and the system will not work well.

Thanks for that but since I blew the transmission the night before I charged it it will be a while before I do it

I will definitely need that chart Thanks alot
