    On my 1989 379 the ac is not working right
    On idle it blows 50° from the outlet and the compressor not cycling
    Engine fan is working
    I put 5 pounds of freon to it
    Can it still be low on freon
    It use to blow about 30° from the outlets before I had to replace some orings and hose

    5lbs is probably to much. I have a 94 and it calls for 3.63lbs.
     
    Roger McG Thanks this.
