[Bricklin] Air conditioning pressure

[Scott Isensee]

I don't have the service manual handy, but, if I remember right, it has a
table of AC system pressures based on both outside air temperature and
humidity.

You can, of course, watch for bubbles in the sight glass too, but that is less
precise.

Don,

This subject just came up on the forum
(http://www.bricklin.org/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1168&whichpage=5) .

According to Mark Stayton of DL it is:

engine @ 1500 rpms. outside air temp 80F= 170#head 11#suction, 90F=
190# and 12#, 100F= 220# and 14#, 110F= 275# and 18# suction. This is for
R-12
