First, your 1998 Mercury contains no Freon which is R12. It contains R-134 refrigerant. You add R134 at the low pressure port. But the fact that you need to add R134 indicates you have a leak.

What is the freon capacity for the air conditioning system and compressor oil on a 1998 H1 Hummer?
First off, it does not contain Freon. Freon is R12 and your Hummer contains R134a which is not Freon. This is not a DIY job. If it is low of refrigerant then it has a leak, and it is illegal to add refrigerant without repairing the leak. I suggest you take the vehicle to a professional that has the expertise and special tools to accomplish this repair.
