Re: Strange Issues with Air Conditioning

Glad I just hooked up the gauges and didn't run the car with the pressure switch off! Here is what I've got

The Static Pressure with the vehicle off and cold at 69*F Outside:

Low Side (Blue) 75
High Side (Red) 75

Dynamic Pressure with the vehicle running initially

Low Side 40
High Side 205

Dynamic Pressure with the vehicle running in closed loop

Low side 60
High Side 450

*NOTE: The pressure switch cuts the compressor off when the pressure exceeds 450PSI on the high side.

Static Pressure HOT

Low Side 120
High Side 120

_________________________________________________

I noticed the compressor is getting vehicle hot very quickly, however the operation is smooth and there is no noise. The orifice tube is new, and at least 7oz of oil has been added to the system. I filled the system with 3 cans of R12..... However the compressor continued to cycle during the duration of the filling so I doubt its over filled.
