I'm so confused -it's like the same thing it did last time --charged worked for a bit then starting getting warm then wouldn't take a charge-as the gauge reads it's over charged now --if the compressor is working right?
going to the 2-60 air system

how in the world do they recover freon then?has to be a way? maybe an old compressor off of a fridge and solder on some fittings? one tube sucks and the other pushes out right?
use the freon hoses from my gauges to push it into a canister?

no, but if you take a freon bottle, and store it in the freezer, it will suck it out when you hook it up.

I would feel or see cold or hot on one of the hoses though right?

system probably has a leak, and you keep adding freon, withou vacumeing down the system. if you keep adding freon it won't work. think of it as putting rocks in a glass, then putting in the water, you can still get a drink, but there;'s not a whole lot of water in there TOO drink. mabe should have used beer as the example?
