I just tried this...I bought a can exactly like yours, and when I hooked it up, the pressure reading was WAAAYYYY in the red zone. like 150 psi. WTF thats impossible, I have never recharged it in the past, and have never had a problem with my ac until recently . So I just pulled the trigger real fast to see what happened and it went down to 0 I let go again and it went right back up to the same spot :eek:. did I get a faulty can perhaps? My system takes forever to start cooling, but when it does work, it works well. any pointers? :help:

I didnt really recharge it much at all, I just quickly pressed and let go to see what the needle did...but I really doubt my a/c would've been working fine for the last 2 years I have had my car if it was significantly overcharged...I am going to check my temperature sensor first to see if its acting funny, and if it seems okay I definitely take my car to the shop.
