wondering if anyone hear can give me help.
I converted over to the new refigerent and replaced the ac compressor. The problem is that now every time the engine exceeds 1 grand, the compressor starts to kick on and off constantly. It won't stop until the engine drops below 1 grand. This does not work when driving on the highway and taching 2 grand. Anyone have any ideas. At first I thought that maybe it was low on freon so i went ahead and put another can in it . The new can did not change anything.

Could it be filled too much or could i have gotten a bad compressor?

Did you pull a vacuum on the system before you added the new refrigerant?
