My pulley on my compressor went bad causing vibration. I replaced the compressor ,drier & both exp.valves. with everything off i flushed the system & replaced the parts.Vacuumed the system down & it will only accept %75 of a can. How do i trouble shoot this failure?. thanks in advance
How long did you vacuum it for? Will it accept more if you manually kick on the compressor?

Push down on the low side service coupler. Your low side is probably much lower than the reading on your gauge set.

i vac'd for about 30 to 45 min each time . the pressure is correct. i have decided to change the compressor & condensor ,dryer, & expansion valves. I vac'd again yesterday and rechecked it to make sure it was holding & it was. the compressor is coming on when the can is opened. So far most more expierenced folks have said the condenser sounds plugged. one guy with tech support at a compressor manufacturer said i flushed the condensor in the wrong direction ruining it. I dont know but I'm tired of maybes so i'll change it . God willing this works I'll cut the old condenser open for a better overstanding.
