Hey all.
So, I've known the AC in my 86' needed to be re-charged for some time now. The weather is finally starting to get nice and warm, and this would be nice to have.
My questions:
It looks like the old style "R12" connector is still present (screw type, not quick release), despite having some paperwork that the previous owner performed an "R134a Conversion".
If you were me - Would you safely assume it's OK to bring it into a shop to have the AC professionally charged up? Are there any "gotcha's" to look out for or mention? Is it even possible to re-charge these old gals with the R12 type still, or am I going to need to look at some kind of big kit to replace components?
I'm not a huge fan of the DIY AC kits you can buy at the parts store, but if push comes to shove and a shop won't touch it - Would this do the trick in a pinch, granted I buy some adapters from Amazon?
Cheers in advance!
