Air Conditioner 93 F250
Hey everyone. I recently replaced the A/C on my 7.5 liter truck. New comp., new accumulator, new orifice tube, new oil and O-rings, and flushed the whole system.
Two questions. What is the proper amount of 134a refrigerant? And what happens if I put the orifice tube in upside down? I can't find info on either one.
I do have a professional set of gauges. I did run a vacuum on the system. It seems to be working but the low pressure is about 35-40 during the cycle at 50° ambient. And I think I put the orifice tube in upside down!

Cooling, Heating, Ventilation & A/C - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums You would probably better to ask on the page in this link, the guys there really know all that stuff.
There should be a sticker with the amount of freon under the hood. And I would be surprised if it works at all with the orifice tube reversed but not an expert.
Try the page in that link and good luck, might even get a lot of info scrolling through the posts.
