I've noticed my A/C has been blowing warm air. Checked the pressure on the low-side port and it was low (about 17psi) so I bought an 18 ounce of R-134A refrigerant to recharge/refill AC.

The can is almost empty but the gauge went up only about 9psi at first and then stopped at 28psi which is low for temperatures around here it needs to be at 45psi. Does it really take more than 1 large can to refill?

 

can u tell me where the fill spot is? like pic? and do i get r134? i have 96 2.8

 

first of all dont ever put that **** in ur ac frigerant u will get air in your compressor and run it dry so dont do it you must have a vacumm suck your lines all dry than you put the refrigerant in do it right or pay 2grand to fix it

 

ok that doesnt answer either of our questions

 

well you will have that question after the fact you put that in and prob about 3 can's of the small ones and prob 2 of the big ones

 

well me i almost never run ac anyways... but every once in a blue moon i like to use it... so i would like to know where the refil spot is

 

i would say keep putting more in until it wont take anymore you will know when its full trust me the cans wont let any more in the system

 

ok... well as far as my question... where is the fill spot??

 

The fill spot is in the right corner of engine compartment near the firewall... the high port and low port are both there u need the thicker tube.
