My fridge stopped cooling. I checked everything out and electrically it's fine. I discovered a leak at the suction line where it connects to the compressor. I installed a piercing valve and it has no refrigerant. I turned the fridge on and it's still pulling into a vacuum so the compressor is likely good. I am a HVAC fella and have never serviced a fridge. I am going to repair the leak, that should be no big deal. I have the R-134A and my gauges, etc.. I just need to know what my suction pressure should be approx.. I know on a car with 134a it's around 40-45 psi but that's a car. So any help will be appreciated.

Leak soldered, vac pump plugging away. I hope a two stage vac pump is not to much for the fridge. I sure hope someone replies with an answer to my other question soon.

well I've got it charged. I am adjusting the charge now to a ball park temp. So far I have about 49°F. SO I have some adjusting left to do. I think I will go check it now.
