Recharging AC on 1995 960 900 1995

Yes, it's warm enough here in Arizona to need AC. Unit displayed classic signs of low freon-- compressor short cycles, unit blows hot air, etc. Ran UV test and found small leak at line at the firewall. Tightened line.

Now am ready to add gas, but can only find one orifice. Am assuming it's the low side (it's on the accumulator). But when I put the gauge on before adding it reads 110 llbs with the AC on (the compressor is not engaging). This seems seriously high for the low side. I'm confused.

Thanks,

Richard
