[DML] Temperature specs for R-134a

["Tell you if you ask." <racuti1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've had my A/C overhauled within the last year. The -only- original 
components remaining are the condensor and the compressor. The system 
was upgraded to R-134a.

7 months ago I hung up my radiator on a parking curb so I had to 
evacuate the system so I could remove everything. I've only recently 
bothered to charge it all up again since it's finally warmed up 
outside.

The Workshop manual gives a list of pressure and temperature specs 
that the A/C should operate at if the system is loaded with R-12.

The compressor cycles at the correct pressures at the specified 
ambient air temperatures but the vent outlet temperature should be in 
the high 30's F for R-12 according to the manual. The coldest I can 
get my A/C is 53F. 

Is this about correct for R-134a systems?
