I have a 87' Syncro with a Tiico conversion. AC has been great all last
summer after the R-134 conversion (did myself), and up until now. Today I
heard a hisssssss and no cold air on the way home. Got into the engine
compartment and discovered the low side line came loose. Tightened it up and
proceeded to charge not knowing exactly how much was lost. I assume most as
it was all hot air. Now for the questions: It would not even take one small
can of 134 (12-16oz?). From what it did take, it now blows cold. However the
compressor is not cycling, it runs constantly. The low side pressure is at
30-35, I can not measure high as I do not have a 134 fitting on it. Any
Ideas? The no cycling has me concered, and the fact it didn't even take 6-8
oz.

Thanks,
Randy
87' Syncro
