I agree. If memory serves, High side should be twice Ambient temp and low side should be half ambient.

That is if the air temp outside is 80°, high side should read in the 160# range. Low side should read 40#.

This is of course, eng running, A/C on and system properly charged. These "ballpark" readings should give good cooling.

Richard, when you say it does not pump sufficiently to cool it would be far better for us to know what the gauges say hooked up and running. High side and low side pressures along with ambient temperature will tell us what's likely going on.

Subject: {Chrysler 300} Rv2 compressor

Does anyone know what the pressure should be on a 1963 rv2 style ( two cylinder) compressor should be? Got a rebuilt and sent mine away.It is only putting out 150 psi on the high side not enough to cool. Rebuilder says that should work and is enough for R12. I think the spec is 170 to 210. Can’t find it for sure written anywhere. I’m stuck. Thanks
