Then we may can help you.. but doing a half way job on a previous suggestion and then trying to move on... not logical and not likely to get you cooled off anytime soon...

I have an apt I have to leave for... will check back this afternoon...sorry...
I tried installing the 134a on the main hose near the front of the car with the little blue? knob. The car was running at full operating temp. Knobs were set to a/c with all vents blowing at high. windows were up, no thermometer at the vent, and I did not use warm water to set the (refrigerant?) can in. Thanks.
