I am frustrated.... I bought my 89 sc 5spd from my stepmom when my dad passed away 9 months ago... When i bought it she told me that my dad had replaced the a/c system with the 134 (it appears he did based on the fittings). However the compressor was not engaging. So, I figured it needed a charge. I did a little research (I am a mechanical newb) and bought some refrigerant. In it went. After two cans the compressor started engaging, but only for a second then off.... about ten second pass.. it kicks on again for a second and back off. I read that I wasn't supposed to put more than three cans in, so the third can I put half. Still this compressor is only on for a second then shuts down...
Ideas? Two cents?
