take your gages and put them on the beginning of the evaporator (afte metering device or txv) and look at saturation temp then get your temp at the suction line (before the compressor) then take you first temp and your second temp and subtract you highest temp from you lowest temp and that would be your superheat

Superheat is measured by calculating the temperature of the refrigerant vapor above its saturation temperature at a given pressure. This is done using a pressure-temperature chart for the specific refrigerant being used. The difference between the actual vapor temperature and the saturation temperature at that pressure is the superheat.
