1993 Ford Aerostar 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive 70.000 miles

I decide to purshase an overhold air conditioner compressor and a new dryer. ...the condenser was in good shape. The mechanic told me that was concerned on the amount of pounds (60) because it was to high....that probably the compresor was not in a good shape. The autoparts guarantee the compressor. I wish to know how many lbs should have the low pressure side and the high side...also how many pounds of freon shoud have the system.

He told me to run the car on trafic and check out if is cooling write, other wise I have to change it....I am concern about all this.
regards

Hi there,

the charge of refrigerant should be 3Lb w/o auxiliary unit,
or 4Lb with auxiliary unit fitted, this system may be over charged.
