They do R12 there.. but the guy admitted to me that he's a fan of 134a. I'll probably go back and just have him replace the compressor, instead. As for my radiator? I don't want to go fiddling around with my oil cooler lines.. so I'll probably just let him do that, too.


You have to do dryer as Jimmy said, it's maybe $20 anyway. Do those lil schrader valves too, again cheap.
