Year: 1999
Make: Saturn
Model: SC2
Refrigerant Type: 134
Ambient Temp: 80
Pressure Low: 40
Pressure High: 100

I bought this SC2 with 133,000 miles over the winter and today I tried the A/C for the first time. It didn't work so I connected the gauges which showed under 20 psi. So I charged it and got the compressor to kick in but can't get it to take more than 9 oz and the high side won't go over 100psi. Is the compressor toast? Anything else I can check first?

So how much refrigerant is in the system now?
