2002 Civic EX A/C pressures I just installed new A/C compressor (w 4.6 oz of PAG46 oil), dryer, expansion valve and condenser and loaded it with 19 oz of Arctic Freeze 134a+.
It's was 62°F outside and I got 20 psi on low side but on 75 psi on high side when I was expecting about 120psi?
What can be wrong? It blows 38 - 40°F air.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

62F is not hot enough to put a good heat load on the high side of the system so pressures will be quite low.
See if it's still blowing that cold when the weather is hot.
