    see, Just like I said "idiot proof"..

    lolol.. J/K

    um.. you are probably ok for now if you only put in one can.. but.. if you acctualy want to know how much you need to add you really need the guage..

    mine took 2 cans of the stuff you had in the picture.. (and it was not completly full) so.. its possible that you are still not full.. dont be a cheep a** and get the guage..

      You need to have the gauges or a shop do this, if you overfill it and the pressure bursts the condensor or the compressor can't handle it, you'll have a much bigger bill than what you just spent. Overcharging can cause the system to not cool and if it's under charged, the low pressure side switch will turn off the compressor. Also, most can's of R-134a do NOT come with sealant and NEVER come with dye that I have ever seen. And I have seen a lot. The dye is not designed to go through the hoses on the manifold gauges and is normally injected wearing scrubs. Some cans will come with small leak stopper in it, like the cans you buy at walmart.

      I bought my gauges for about $60 off ebay new.
