If the owner can not supply the proper tools for  you to perform your job, you need to put your two weeks in a look for another carrier.","replyToPid":0}

The gauge can tell you a little bit what is wrong with a/c. I can't remember but I want to say its 3.4- 4.1 lbs system should be a sticker saying how much.  After adding if it has a leak you will see and smell it.\nbuying and trying to run portable a/c expensive"}
