When I rebuilt my 84 dually a few years ago I replace the entire ac system with new or reman parts. Had some hoses made up to mate the 2004 81L ac compressor to the 84 system. Worked good but the new hoses had a leak and would lose the Freon(R134) over a few days to a couple weeks. Has been sitting and not getting used much since buying a motorhome with out any feon in it. Decided to fix it and had new hoses made up. Found the orifice tube plugged. Cleaned out evaporator and condenser(didn't have much come out). Pulled a vacuum(got to 20in). Live at 4300 ft. went to put Freon in and jumped the sensor and both sides went to about 85 psi and stayed. No take any Freon. Compressor is running but a bit noisy. Anybody has this problem? Bad compressor? plugged up somewhere? Thanks for any info.
