1990 AC question - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

In my experiece is unless it is totally out, the compressor will kick on as you add the 1lb. If it doesn't start you can unplug the pressure sensor on the a/c line and jump it to manually start the compressor. I am not 100% sure exactly which plug it is as I would refer to the FSM if needed so it would be good to look up the exact plug location just in case but I think you will be fine getting it to come one with just the can of freon when you crack it open. I still run R12 too.
