Joe's AC capacity

[adoherty@domain.elided (Adam Doherty)]

Joe, I too got the Autocool stuff (but haven't done anything with it as 
yet since they haven't yet sent me the hose....). Anyhow, as per their 
website and instructions with the kit, you use some fraction of the 
amount of r-12 required. That is, somewhere on the order use es-12 to 
fill AC system with 75% of the weight/volume that you would for r-12 or 
r-134. If I read your post correctly, you filled using an equal amount of 
es-12 as you would r-12; and that's why you're getting a high psi. Part 
of the "benefit" of the es-12 stuff is its abnility to run at lower 
pressures and thus prolong your AC system and consume less power....
