Ac question
well then mr wizard how much was already in his system already?
No idea??? 24oz is the capacity, I haven't received a clear amount of total charge, so I'm using the pressures(still within specs), and waiting for vent temp reading. With the high/low readings at 330/40 & 105ambient, that would point to a restriction, most likely the expansion valve.

this when compressor stop
this when compressor running. Is that normal. It shows on the low side 30 but the ac is cold now

the gauges you have have a temperature ring the second ring. when the system is off and truck not running the high side and low side should equalize after sitting. look at the temperature ring on both when it does equalize. both gauges should read the same pressure at the given ambient temperature. so for correlation at 90* F it should have a pressure of about 104 - 105 psi hard to tell from the angel of the picture when properly charged. if the readings are too low or too high it will not match the outside air temp. both high and low need to match pressures. this is what is called a static pressure test. it is a quick diagnostic test to see if you are over or under on refrigerant. when you have the proper gauge set. not all gauge sets have the ambient temp reading on the dial

degrees should be 110. Does that mean that I have too much pressure ? And have to release some? And hummerz , the thermostat should arrive tomorrow
took 5 mins for the needles to stop on both gauges
that’s the result in the pic
numbers are solid. So does that mean it’s charged? Or what should I do next?
