the number you need to be conserned with is the pressure with the COMPRESSOR on, with it off it will be alot higher and you will think its overcharged......BUt if you said it was a zero when you started your going to need the whole can and maybe more, but what you can do is feel the pipe on the low side when that gets cold, your full or almost there stop and check the pressure with the compresor on, The clicking noise is normal, exspecailly when its cool out, it does not have to work as hard and the freon contracts when its cold so the compressor cycles on and off more then say on a day thats 95 were it might be on all the time, just make sure your pressure reading is between 25 and 35psi and your ac will be all set for the warmest days.
