A/C Recharge
What are the A/C recharge steps or directions? Does anyone know if these have been posted? I want to do the recharge myself instead of taking it to a shop. Thanks

Make, model, and year would be very helpful.
First, if the system is low or empty you need to find the leak and repair it. The old refrigerant went somewhere.
Next, is this an R134 system or an R12 system?
You will need access to a vacuum pump and a manifold gauge set at minimum.
