Default R12

Im looking for a place that will charge my r12 AC system in my car. I dont want to convert the system because its more expensive then i really want to spend right now. No im not buying that cheap ghetto shit from autozone either. Also I dont care if its bad for the environment or w/e you have to say. If you dont know where I can get my car charged at then do not post in this thread. kthnxbai.

its expensive for a R12 refill tho.. I knew an AC guy, he claims that if you 50/50 the 2, its a lot colder. Im sure its gunna be hard finding it.

No you CANNOT mix the 2.... The oils in both react badly with each other and turn into a gel and ruin your compressor... Look on craigslist, Ive seen people selling the cans on there.

an EPA certificate must be presented before purchasing. Failure to do so MAY result in your order being canceled.
Hmmm. How would they know?
