A/C

[qatcool]

Last Year I had my A/C compressor replaced ( AC delco). it seems fine, now that summer has come, i dont feel that it is cooling especially during noon.

 

any body here knows whats the working pressure of the refrigerant?

Sorry my friend but I don't know that off the top of my head, and even if I did I think there is a chance your A/C is different that US models. Any NPORA members out there able to shed some light on this?

Not me. I recharged mine with the self refill bottle that had a simple to use pressure gauge built on to it. It didn't give the pressure rather, it had a color coded "yellow" (low) "green" (just right) "red" (to high).

Thanks for the reply, I had it top up, pressure is 35 on suction and 165 on discharge

Yes indeedy, we like to use colors here in the USA, much easier than numbers :laugh: :laugh:

Most ac systems are usually 20-40 psi for the low pressure side (with the ac running) & 200-225 psi for the high side wit R12 or 225-250 psi for R134a.

Isn't there a sticker under the hood? I know there is on mine. You should also be able to find this information on the compressor.
