How many ounces does a 1999 Ford Ranger have?
The 97 has 25 ounces which is a hair over two 12 ounce cans, where the 94 uses 28 ounces (although I have seen 36 ounces for the 94 as well, but I believe that might be for the R12 version) the 1999 uses 30 ounces. This information will also be displayed on the sticker that is on top of the radiator support.
What do I need to resurrect my Ford Ranger?
You will need an A/C manifold gauge set, and a vacuum pump to evacuate the system. You can buy the manifold gauge set at AutoZone or O’Reilly for about $90 or Harbor Freight for about $50. The pump is quite abit more expensive. I recommend borrowing or renting one for this, but Craigslist can be a source as well.
Can You retrofit a Ford Ranger with R12?
If you are looking to do a retrofit as R12 is now illegal to buy or sell, (at least for the average consumer that does not have a proper license to buy and sell R12) you will want to do some more research on what parts you need to replace and how much refrigerant to use, what type of oil to use etc. R134a is a fairly inexpensive refrigerant.
Do you need to replace pressure transducer in Ford Ranger?
For the component replacement sections keep this important fact in mind: If you do any component replacement other than the pressure transducer switches or the clutch, (ie opening the system) you will need to replace the accumulator/dryer. If you open the system to the air for more than a few minutes you must replace the accumulator/dryer.

How does the accumulator work on a Ford Ranger?
The accumulator/dryer holds excess PAG oil, removes any moisture in the refrigerant using a desiccant and catches any liquid refrigerant that has not boiled into gas yet (Liquid refrigerant going into the compressor will hydro lock it, just like taking water in the intake of the truck).
What happens if you open refrigerant can in Ford Ranger?
Miss a detail and you can have all of your work be for nothing, including trashing a very expensive compressor. Another difficulty is that messing with the refrigerant cans is dangerous. If you open the wrong valves on the manifold gauge set you can cause the can to explode, possibly severely injuring yourself or any bystanders.
