Hi I hope I am posting this in the right place. I have searched the site and have not found anything so I will start a new thread. I have a 2008 f250 crew cab lariat with dual zone climate control. I just replaced the the evaporator core and need to know how much freon my system is supposed to hold. I know there is a sticker under the hood that states the capacity but half of it is missing. I also know all the precedures as to vacuuming down the system and charging. All I need is the capacity. Can anyone help?

Thanks

 

My sticker says 9 fl oz / 266cc. R-134A refrigerant.

 

That sounds like the oil capacity. Should be more than that. Most systems have somewhere between 1 and 3lbs.

 

let me look I have mine outside.

1.69 lbs.

 

Wow, I guess I put to much in. thought it would have been more. Thanks.

 

What are your readings?

 

Yeah, That was the oil. Sorry.

 

35 on the low side and 250 on the high. When I had 36 ozin the compressor was still cycling. I ended up putting in 3lbs to het the reading I am at, but I think it's freezing up now. Does it give gas and diesel readings on the sticker?

 

yes.

1.56 lbs for the 5.4 motor.

 

Dang, guess I better pull some back out. Thanks.

 

yeah an overcharge is not good.
