R12 Systems are so cool!

[@mannine99]

nice stash of R12

[@woodsandbarclay]

It's so easy to get people don't realize how readily available it still is.

[@hakaluku]

@@woodsandbarclay Unfortunately in Germany its impossible for me to get R12 for my 89 chevy caprice

[@porcupinepunch6893]

​@@hakaluku you can also use r-152a difluoroethane which can be found in those electronics duster cans, and can be connected with what's called a "can tap", however you might need to charge it with a different amount than what's listed on the car.

@@porcupinepunch6893 That is really great info ppp!

[@juliusphiletta5171]

​@@hakalukuNein, ich habe auf jeden Fall in DE was bekommen, du musst immer mal bei Kleinanzeigen suchen, ab und zu wird es angeboten, manchmal auch als Freon oder Frigen.​

[@franklinrhodevelt6441]

What were you high side and low side pressures when fully charged?

[@woodsandbarclay]

I'm sorry this was a long time ago. No way I can remember what they were I've done so many cars since then.

[@GwinnettLawns]

Can you sell me three cans? I have my 1989 Chevy K1500 with the original R4 compressor and want to use R12 since that what is in it now.

[@woodsandbarclay]

No these are for customer cars. Just look on craigslist

[@boistoys5451]

Where did you get that oil injector tool??

[@boistoys5451]

Never mind, I just saw it on eBay

[@woodsandbarclay]

I was about to say I'm sure you could find one on Amazon or ebay. I don't remember what brand it is that I got.
