AC recharge questions Options

[lagos]

is there any way to bleed the air out of your AC system without having to take it to a shop? i understand that i shop puts it on an electric Vac pump that sucks all the air out of the system. is there any way to do this at home?

couldnt you keep refilling the low side, while venting the high to bleed it?

Well when they recharge the A/C they usually do a complete removal of the old refriderant. And this also moves all the moister in the system. Moister like water in the system is not good couase it could freeze. They put a vacuum on the system by evacuating it for 30 minutes, and they use the vacuum to pull new refridgerant into the system. What kind of refridgerant does your car have in now? Well if you have r12 in your system, it is illegal to release that into the atmosphere. But im not a cop so.... anyways. They have kits were you can refill it using a can, but those tend to get a lot of air into the system and not work really well. I think it would be better to get it done some place where that have the machines to do it. I'll write more later, but right now i have a plane to catch haha. Ill be back posting tomorrow.
