We turned the car on and added freon and now it reads (whilethecarson) 105 psi? Do you check the freon when the cars off or on? Also on the high side near the condenser there is the high side port and it was leaking what i guess to be freon. made a noise like letting air out of a tire, it did this the day I got home and it wouldn't start a few hours later. didn't think anything of it. so when we added the freon the car it started to cool down significantly. but then that high side port stem started leaking. To makesure the new lowside pressure switch i got worked i quickly took the bridge out of the plug and plugged it in and turned on the ac, the clutch was going on an off. so there is very little to no freon. the highside part is connected to the reflll tube over the accumulator. Could it just be the highside cap leaking? it doesnt seem to be at the connection just the top of thee stem.what should I do? Im considering taking it to my mechanic and let him figure it out and then give me an option so as i know what to do myself.Sorry there are many grammar flaws, i am in a hurry.</blockquote>
