zeitgeist57 Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 Sean got my ‘79 Lincoln to have A/C once again!!! However, it may be a little low on Freon as it’s cool but not cold. Anyone have 1lb or so of R12? I’d like to check to make sure the A/C system is topped off. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supldys Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 There's stuff advertised as "universal" on Amazon, not sure how well it actually works. https://www.amazon.com/ZeroR-Z134-Refrigerant-Replacement-Depleting/dp/B07DKS8JV5/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?keywords=r12+refrigerant&qid=1567481188&s=gateway&sprefix=R12+refr&sr=8-9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R134a is not flammable and R1234yf is considered flammable though supposed to be hard to ignite. The disclaimer says flammable around open flame for this stuff, I bet it has more propane in it. I wish I was more educated on this stuff, but if it was so great it should be easier to find out about. Besides once you put some of that shit in your system it’ll be considered contaminated and good luck getting it serviced by a shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted September 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 I've got a guy in NJ that has cans of R12 for sale, would be like $100 shipped for 2 14oz cans I believe...I just haven't had time to research what the fill/gauge tool would be as he doesn't have that. I don't even know if a conventional R-134 nozzle is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even know if a conventional R-134 nozzle is the same. No they are not, each type of refrigerant has its own fittings. I think R22 on a house uses the same fittings, not positive. I have a set of gauges that should work if so, but honestly I have no experience working with R12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
