Charge A/C System AGAIN.....I think the compressor may be bad.

Posted

I noticed that my A/C was getting weak again so I checked the pressure. It was down. I added 5 12 oz. cans to get the pressure back up. I had a charge line come loose on me and I lost a good bit before I caught it. I don't think all 5 cans went into the system. With the temp at about 90 degrees outside, I got the low side pressure to about 58 psi and the high side was around 250 psi. I could hear something leaking down at the compressor when I shut the engine down. I think that may be where my leak is. DUH!!! :banghead: I am gonna check the A/C again today and see how it performs. With a fresh charge of R134a, the output temp in the middle A/C outlet was about 60 degrees which is within the specs. that manual calls for. Has anyone replaced an A/C compressor yet? :whistle: Just can't wait to find out what this is gonna cost me. :ahhh:

you took my cupcake! just tell me where to find decent gauges and we're even.:pray:

I go to the refrigeration supply house, but they are pretty strict about selling to out siders of the trade. Look on line for a quality set like, Imperial Eastman, Robinar, Yellow Jacket, JB. Bet you can find a nice set on Ebay.
