I'm too poor to go out and buy the manual, all I need is the high and low side pressures for the A/C on a 2003 4Runner V6. Not blowing cold, I suspect it needs a bit of a charge.

Ih8mud.com is pretty good for 80, 100 series Land Cruisers & they have a 4runner section also, but not as active:

Tundra Solutions also has a 4runner forum, but it's been a while since I've surfed there:

Thanks Gale, if nobody here has access to the information I'll sign up and post on one of those.

Also you might want to post on www.yotatech.com. They seem pretty knowledgeable and they have some fixit writeups.

as follows,
Ambient temp. at the air inlet must be 86 to 95 F. Engine rpm must be 1500
AC blower on high max cool recirculate. Run it a couple of minutes and the
low pressure should be 21.75 to 36.25, high side 198.70 to 227.70 psi
This is toyota's figures or you could just look at the sight glass after its warmed up and ac on with the same parameters. Or you could charge it the way its supposed to be charged. Total volume. 650 +-30 grams or 22.92 +-1.06 ounces.

Thanks Bill. What's the procedure using the sightglass, all I've ever used it for is to look for bubbles. Just fill until the bubbles are pretty well gone?
