I have yet another problem tyhat sounds like an embarrasing and noobish error but I have to ask because idk how to fix it. Now I am usre I am leak free, it holds pressure for 24 houras plus and yet every day when I go to turn it on it wont get cold. I need to add gas to it to get it running and then evacvuate some to bring the pressures down on the lowside. Doing this everyday is kind of a hassle and makes it impossible to get a good tune. Most people claim they need to have a static pressure of around 75PSI for it to condense in their phase, I need 130-150.
My only guess is I have to little space in my low side so when I turn it on there is not enough substance in the lowside for the compressor to pull in and compress to condensable pressures. I do have a pretty large cond. I am using a 3' flex hose though. Also thanks I will check my superheat/subcool but as I said I seem to have a horrible design flaw in my A/c conversion phase. I hope K10 does not have this damn problem.
