The A-C system is charged with refrigerant not coolant but you didn't know and now you do. The systems in theory are a sealed unit and therefore should not ever need to be charged unless there is a leak. If the leak is large enough to warrant parts replacment, you might consider to convert to R-134A instead of the R-12.
