Answer
Hi Nauman,
I checked and found that you have a '99 T&C. I personally have not tried to empty or to refill an a/c system. But as I read the manual a refrigerant recovery/recycling machine has to be used along with a set of guages. If you get access to such equipment let me know and I will xerox and postal mail to you the couple of pages that describe the procedure. I believe if you try to do it without the machine it will not fill properly and/or operate properly thereafter. So do let me know when you have the equipment to do it yourself should you want to try.
