In the interest of full disclosure, my oldest son's 300E 2.6 still has
R12 in it, and I have a can on the shelf. It could probably stand to be
topped off, but I don't have a manifold gauge set that will do R12.....
It is my understanding that one doesn't need a gauge set in this
situation. Aren't there bubbles showing in the sight glass if the
system is low? Adding refrigerant (with the compressor running) until
the bubbles go away restores cooling. Or at least that is the way I
always did it. I think. It's been a long time.
I'd go through and tighten all the connections first.
