What happening if you are overcharging an air conditioning system with refrigerant?

For starters, you'll get insufficient cooling from your system. Refrigerant changes states from liquid to vapor and back again in order to achieve cooling, and the system pressure is balanced to facilitate this - excessive refrigerant makes it much more difficult to do this.
Additionally, your system will generate excessively high pressure, which will ultimately damage or destroy system components.
