Default How many cans of freon? V6.

I was looking at friends Durango and he wanted to know how much freon it takes to refill the system cause the stem in the low side pressure connector is hissing and looses a can like every week. Thanks ahead of time.

It would be better if you use a gauge and fill it appropriately. If you don’t do this you can blow the compressor.

On the engine tab under the hood (sticker) it should say how many lbs of coolant it can have in the system.

Fix the leak first and don’t forget to buy a Freon that has the oil additive in it as well or you will need to add a/c oil into the lines for lubrication of the moving parts.
