How to recharge you A/C.

First thing you have to do is discharge the pressurized air that is in the system still prior to refill the system.

Once you have completed letting the pressure out from the low side, you will start your car with the a/c on max, go under the hood and fill the system according to specs.
When you start filling the a/c you want to open the can and flip up side down so that the liquid goes in the system. Run car for about 5 minutes with a/c full blast.

Remember that if the system is too low the a/c wont work properly and if it is too full it wont either and damage can occur.

Filling your A/C after the system have been disconnected......

The first thing you want to do is double check that all your connections are connected properly and make sure you install the washers and seals that go to the system.

You will need 1 can of peg oil and 2 cans of r134.

steps are same as above, but first you add the oil first and the the freon.
this is the only time that you will have to add the oil, only if you disconnect the system.

Remember the cans are only 12oz and there is 16oz to a pound, our cars take 1.5 pound to fill and you can get away with 3 can of r134.

Hope this help. Sorry for the bad spelling of any....
