Customer brought in his van today for a/c recharge.also complained that when
he had a/c on it idled around 2k rpms....this is an 86 vanagon westy.

Well, found a leaky o-ring, replaced, pulled a vacuum for half an hour, then
charged it up..........220 on the high side.  Blew nice and cold.but the
idle was still at 2K.   What gives with that?
