Just picked up my first SN-95 and can't seem to figure out which port I use to put the R-134. It goes on perfectly on the driver side port but nothing seems to come out. When I attempt it on the drivers side, the connector does not fit tooo well and it will leak. I'm new to A/C recharging, so ANY help is greatly appreciated. Joe:shock:
 
the driver's side is the correct port.that is the low pressure side.put ac on max ac and high fan,shake can while recharging.if it's not charging,it may be full or too high a pressure.could be something other then low freon if air is not cold.:SNSign:
 
If the system is empty, you'll need to pull a vacuum on it before it will accept the refrigerant. If my memory serves me correctly, you need to pull 30" of vacuum for 30 minutes before charging, in order to get all of the non-condensibles out (air/water). Then you'll need to hook up to the port on the driver's side as davis3 pointed out and charge the system. I think the system takes 4oz of PAG oil, so it might not be a bad idea to add a can of oil charge along with the refrigerant if the system has been empty for a while, or after vacuuming it down.
