I flushed the condenser, evaporator and expansion valve again...put it back together charged it and same issue.



When I watch the gauges, the high side is ~200psi and the low side is 10psi, it creeps up to ~25psi, and that is when the compressor kicks on, and it shoots straight down to 10psi again, compressor shuts off....then it takes a good 5 seconds to get back up to ~25psi and the process repeats.

It seems like the compressor shuts itself off when the low side drops (aka as soon as the compressor turns on)...Its not undercharged since BEFORE the compressor kicks on at ~8oz and stays on while more 134a gets sucked in.

Where else could a blockage be or any other ideas? The compressor itself? Drier?
