    45 on the low side and 240 on the high side at about 80°
    An engine is an engine no matter the size.... I think Dr. Seuss said that... or maybe it was Big Weld....

    25-45 is the normal low side pressures, which is what you will mainly use for filling per pressure. 25 would be on a cool dry day, and 45 would likely be a very hot and humid day. You can find charts for temperature/pressure.

    crazy guy do you have A/C equipment? vac pump, etc?
    I installed a new condenser but need to do a leak down test.
    Maybe ill load in some dye and pressurize it, the dye will look like a murder scene under black light if there's a leak,
