Charge the A/C system..... that's why your compressor is not running properly to start with. Its off on low pressure safety. Start by using a manifold set and evacuating the system both sides Discharge and Suction. Using a electronic scale carefully weigh in the correct charge of 134A (charge specs Ibs - ozs. should be printed on a label over the radiator shroud)
