I am contemplating taking mine to a local reputable guy.

My brother took his car to him and they charged, found a leak, repaired, re-charged for $100 bucks. Car was 95 Ford Explorer.

Is it, in your opinion, worth taking it for this type of service, or is this AC system too complicated, or foreign (not a pun) for some hayseed to work on.....
