Subject: A/C compressor on 1987 9000 Turbo



Hi all.

I just replaced the A/C compressor on my 1987 9000 Turbo after the original
one froze up and am wondering what type of refrigerant it uses. I started to
put in R-12 but the head pressure seems rather high (275-300 psi) for this
type of refrigerent. Suction is at 35/40 at idle and is still low. Am I
using the wrong type of gas? Is there a clogged filter/dryer? The condenser
fan seems to be operating ok and I pulled a good vacuum beforehand.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Joe
