Sanden 706P Question

[rafjr64]

Yes. I'm sure that's what it is. I was able to get it charged up. It's blowing 45 degrees. I probably overcharged by 3oz. Readings were in line with Vintage Air but I know I added more refrigerant than what is called for. Will drive it today. Connect gauges and take some readings; bleed off if I have to. I am thinking I can recover a couple of ounces into one of the empty 12oz cans I used if I crack the valve slightly....from the low side. Won't cause me to lose too much oil will it?

You did not state under what conditions you are getting 45F, but if that is with an ambient of 85F or thereabouts, I’d leave it alone

[rafjr64]

90 degrees ambient

Leave it alone.

I'm still concerned about the accuracy of these gauges and the fact that I installed more than the recommended refrigerant. should prob get my own set of gauges or take it to a shop get their opinion. but I hear you. thank you.

You should have your own gauge set.

These are a good option, and you will also support the forum.
