The original label on my '69 said 3.25#.The amount was on a stick on label that looked like something from a Dymo label maker. Underneath it said 3.75#. The label went missing years ago, but I found the same label on a junkyard compressor. That label is now on my truck. I've always wondered if later years took 3.75 since they changed to crimped hoses sometime later than my truck was made.

Just looked at the '69 service manual. It says 3 lbs. 4 oz. of R-12 and 10 oz. of oil. Do you have a manual for your year?
