  Did the system get opened up or drained all the way down for a long 
period of time?  If so then you may have an ambient pressure system 
full of non compressible gasses along with your R-134a.  If so the 
system would need evacuated to a solid vacuum and refilled.  
If not then see if you have a sight glass.  Some are inline and some 
are on the reciever/drier.  Fill until the bubbles almost go away at 
a slightly increased idle.
  Of course you want to check your high and low side pressures to 
be sure they maintain within specs for the given ambient temp while 
doing so.
