Hmmmmm ..... I recall my high side was mid-high 200's. I overcharged because the valves on the compressor head are weird. It's got the old school, dual seal screw valves. You have to back off from fully closed about two turns ONLY, or it gives odd readings. I ended up at about 50 psi and bled some gas, but a bunch of oil came out.
On the very up side, the dash A/C blew nice cold air last night so I know the rest of the pieces are working. Yay!
I know oil level is important, so maybe I should just have a shop evacuate the system altogether. Then I could put in the new drier I bought, drain/refill the compressor, vacuum the system and load from scratch with fresh oil and proper gas pressure.
