AC pressure readings ...

Finally got my car filled(I hope) back with R-12 after following all prcedures touted on this forum.

Here are my readings form the guages on a nice muggy Miami afternoon. It was about 85degrees outside:

At idle the low/high readings were 52/152

At 1500 RPM they were 41/168

With the vehicle off after sitting for a couple of hours, 108/108

The car is cooler and more comfortable, especially at idle than with the 134. I was stuck in bumber to bumper at midday and I was not sweating.

BTW, I added appox 4-12oz cans of R-12 which is what the systems call for. 3lbs =48ozs.

Any opinions on the readings would be appreciated.
