You have a vacuum pump and refrigerant charging cylinder? Those would be unusual for anyone other than an appliance refrigeration technician to have. They're not the sort of tools usually required for automotive air conditioning service if that's where you got your equipment from.

Refrigerant service on a refrigerator typically starts at around $150 and then the cost of parts of top of that. Replacing a compressor is rarely cost effective unless a very expensive or difficult to replace refrigerator model or the part itself is covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
