    Air conditioning

    Vent air is just ambient not cooling at all and low side is low enough that the compressor cycles but if I try to add enough to keep compressor on the high side goes higher and at that point I unplug the compressor

    Air conditioning

    Not immediately the high side will start up when I start putting freon in and then the compressor will kick off and on but as I keep adding freon the high side will just keep climbing although the compressor will still cycle on and off although of course less frequently and I thought the same...
