Did you put oil in first and then pull vacuum? That can be classified as "ooops...."

You probably sucked most of the oil back out.... did the cans of refrigerant you put in also have oil in them?

I will also add that most A/C systems will only drop the temperature by about 30 degrees. And the Ram a/c isn't the best out there. lol

But, that DOES look good.

I'd be happy with a 45* drop from ambient . Did you add anymore 134?
