You kept a vacume until you added freon, right?1 can of freon will bring the vacum up to about 10psi. Then start the moter and the low side will be even less than that.Should be able to add more. When you get to the third can , it can be very slow. Put the can in a bucket of very warm TAP WATER while charging . This will jet propelle the freon into your system. |
