The gauge shows about 5lbs of pressure in the suction side.... How much should it have?

Should be 5-PSI... so if you're reading 5-PSI is it with the system running, or at rest?
Does it start out at 5psi & stay there?( low freon or severe blockage)  or does it start off higher & drift down to 5-psi?...( ice crystals forming from a previous leak)


but anyway, approx. between 15-25PSI depending at which point the cycles at.

Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes.
Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon!

"Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan.
