Excellent! You are awesome - I can work with that and then some. Sorta reminds me of Taurus controls...

 

Ok I feel like a idiot now. The gauges I was using I guess were bad I borrowed another buddy's set and got readings that sound normal. Here is what I got the temp inside my garage where I did the test was 92 degrees the humidity was at 60%. I ran the vehicle for a total of 5 minutes with the A/C at full blast. The first reading I took was before the truck was ever started.
The low side read 86lbs the high side read 99lbs.
The second test was running the truck at a high RPM and my readings were as follows.
The low side would start off between 35-40lbs and as I reved it the pressure would drop to 21-22lbs and the compressor would shut off and it would climb back to 35-40lbs before the compressor would come back on.
The high side would start off between 210-220 as I reved the motor the pressure would climb to 245-260lbs then the compressor would cut off and the pressure would drop back down to 210-220lbs before the compressor would come back on.
If you let the truck sit at idle the pressure would sit at.
Low side 35
High side 225
I then shut the truck off and check the readings they dropped for a second or too then these were the readings.
Low side 63lbs
High side 74lbs
The tempreture off the center vent was reading 47-48 degrees after the truck had been running about 5-6 minutes.
I also wanted to mention one other thing I went to Oreilly and one of the guys that works their part time is a mechanic and he lloked at my truck and said it did not have a high pressure cycling switch just a low one on the dryer I just wanted to throw that in if you needed that info. Thanks again hopefully this is a enough info to diagnos the problem.

 

Copy and paste this post with all of the info just like it is, then post it in the cooling, heating, and air conditioning forum here at FTE. I think you have enough here to really interest those guys - and like I said, many of them do A/C for a living, and I know for a fact they have seen this before...

THEY WILL GIVE YOU an answer that fixes it.

 

I have already done that waiting for a reply.

 

GOOD ON YA!

My opinion, you are slightly low on freon, maybe half can or so. It could be something else, but I would start there if it were my truck. But, don't take my advice, follow Greywolf's. jd

 

Excellent suggestion!!

 

OK you two, knock it off.

Last warning or suggestion, take it however you like.
Put each other on the ignore list.
I will not ask again.
