Once I replaced the components I evacuated it for about 1 hour.

The compressor seems to cycle at a normal rate. On for 10-12 seconds then off for 5-6 soconds. the aux. fan has not come on as of yet- i also replaced both switches in the dryer when the system was apart.

I guess I have always had good luck charging r-12 units with the sight glass. I ASSumed that if you had liquid at the dryer that you were close to a nominal charge......But you know what they say about ASSsuming........

If It was overcharged would'nt the pressures be high and the discharge line real hot?

Thanks for the feedback I need the help.
