So PRESTO... you wind up " Low on 'Freon' ".... from a leak....after doing all that work in the first place....

But this is a forum and others will learn from your mistakes...
So this " all I wanted was an answer to thus and so' does not mean that is all that will get posted to the thread....

You Stated: " AND you did not use pressure to test for a leak before installing your refrigerant the first time..."

Actually, I did, I just did not state, as was not important as I did not have a leak. Sorry, I left that out, but that was really not an issue with my questions, and my problem.

You Stated: "So PRESTO... you wind up " Low on 'Freon' ".... from a leak....after doing all that work in the first place...."

Did you actually read my first post? What does a leak have to do with it? I had no leak. Why and where did you get a leak as a problem???

You Stated: "But this is a forum and others will learn from your mistakes..."

You are correct there, I did not put in enough Freeze12 (F12).

My problem, was I did not add enough F12 to begin with. If you would have read my first post, you would see that I put in only 24OZ of F12. Once Arthur answered my question, I added more F12, and now blowing 40ish degrees. Not insulted at all, I make mistakes, and have no problem admitting when i goof!

This thread has become totally useless...and I am sorry if I stated anything in my post to lead you to all these conclusions....
