Did you charge the a/c, and what was the result?

Since R12 is completely banned from Canada, this turned out to be very viable stuff. It's also freon-free so you tree huggers don't have to worry about a thing. Kit comes with a pressure gauge.
That looks interesting. I wish they sold it in my local stores.

I am going to have someone do it. I tried to plug it in and it was escaping as I was trying to connnect it. Not sure if I know what I am doing with the R12.

I don't know if I just need to be a little quicker on the draw or what. When I did it with and R134 system I just plugged it in and pulled the trigger.

The r12 is in cans and has a hose with a penetrating needle to release the contents of the bottle. I am using a bottle I previously opened.

I am connecting it to the large diameter pipe inside of the engine compartment, not the fitting that protrudes out the front of the car.

Let me know if I you have any suggestions.
