I'm trying to debug a problem with the AC on a Lexus LX450 (Toyota Landcruiser). On a hot day, the AC starts out cold; after some time, it stops putting out cold air. I noticed that the low side is in correct range, but the high side was somewhat high. There are 3 ports on the compressor: 1 fit the low side, 2 fit the high side hose. Why are there
2 high side ports (one pointed up, one pointed down)? Which one should I use?How do I check the compressor's oil on this type of car? What is a best way to clean the condensor? Thanks for any advise.

P.S. I read somewhere that people use a refrig compressor and convert it to a vacumm pump. If you know some info, please point me to it. Thanks.
