I bought a kit from the auto parts store, after connecting it I could only get the system to accept about 3/4 of the can befor the dicharge line started to swell which would not allow anymore refrigerant. AC compressor runs continuous but blows warm. At high idle speed compressor kicks on and off about every 15 seconds

you need gauges before you can fix,could be too much freon or any number of things,dont fool around with it,take it to frig tech.

sounds like the system is clogged...did you evacuate the r-12 first before putting the 134a in...the oils are not compatible with each other...which will cause the entire system to fail...
if you did evacuate the system...then you probably have a clogged system...
the compressor cutting off and on is because of low Freon pressure

in spite of temperature your automobile has a refrigerant leak. you want to evacuate your gadget right down to 29" of vacuum and watch the gauge for leaks, or upload refrigerant and use cleansing soap and water and a sprig bottle to search for leaks. those intense priced refrigerant leak detectors are close to valueless. Soapy water and bubbles is your ideal wager. Now I actual have considered A/C line brackets overlaying up a leak until eventually you get rid of the bracket. So examine lower than the strains and in the back of the brackets. get rid of the blower module or resistor board to make certain contained in the evaporator housing too Make your assessments even as that's chilly for more beneficial valuable consequences.

there is a blockage in the A/C system. common things are the oriffice tube and the receiver-dryer. A/C repair can get complicated - professional help may be the way to go.

Im guessing you have too much pressure in the AC lines. I would release some pressure and get the freon into the line to replace.

IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS TO MUCH PRESSURE IN THE SYSTEM AND YOU HAVE TO BE REAL CAREFUL BECAUSE YOU CAN BLOW OUT A LINE DOING THAT, THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO IS TO TAKE IT AND HAVE IT VACUUMED DOWN AND THEN CHECK FOR LEAKS AND THEN THEY CAN PUT THE EXACT AMOUNT OF FREON IN THE SYSTEM, YOU HAVE TO BE VERY CAREFUL WITH FREON AND CHARGING A SYSTEM, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A GAGE AND A THERMOMETER AND KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING.

Have a shop check it. Sounds like you have a clogged dryer. It will need to be replaced, the system evacuated, and recharged. Note they should pull your freon and use it to recharge your system, so don't pay for it twice.

Sounds to me like you need a new compressor and a new dryer. Orfice tube might be plugged up in dryer too.

you need to evacuate the system and check it for leaks before recharging.that way you can measure exactly what you put in and be sure that there is no air in the system. put too much in and I think you get liquid where you don't want it and the system won'twork or could get damaged.

it will not accept refrigerant unless the pump kicks on 134a also builds air in the ac system
