`91 LX 5.0 AOD Convertable

I pulled the caps off the lines and hit the fittings with needle nose pliars, the system has pressure in it but it seemed a little weak compared to how much pressure was in my car when I checked it before having the system drained.

I can spin the compressors clutch by hand.

when I hit the a/c I don't here the compressor kick on at all, and hot air blows out.

does it just need to be refilled? The a/c hasn't worked since the car was purchased used...3 years ago or so, so if it was leaking I'd think no pressure would be in it at all [Confused]
