2000 Ranger, AC not cold enough. some cooling, but not enough to make wiffie happy.
ambient temp 86
clutch cycle on time 4-5 seconds
low side goes from 36 to 15 when clutch is on
hi side from 125 to 150
after waiting 5 minutes off, pressure slowly settled to 94 low and 105 hi..
tried to add gas from old can, not much pressure left in can, it (can) did cool down a little.
after gas and running 20 minutes low side is now 37-17, hi side is 135-175.
not much change registered by "hand thermometer" in cabin.
my guess is it needs more gas, what hi side press should I look for?
thanks, Perry
