Re: [MBZ] A/C Woes...the saga continues...
I got mine from MAC 15$ and I was able to purchase the same day http://www.macsw.org/macs.asp?mfurl=certify.html I've also heard you can go to a junk yard with your 609 and buy their reclaimed r-12. No Idea what that would cost or how you would do it.

Re: [MBZ] A/C Woes...the saga continues...
Thanks George...I used to do all my own a/c work before the EPA got anal about R-12. When I was on a ship in the Navy, the AC&R guys worked for me and I had them teach me all about the refrigeration systems. I recently heard about a course you could take to get certified to purchase R-12guess I need to do that. I'll check out the web site.

Importance: Low Hey Royce, Sounds like it's a little low on colland and the cut off switch is doing it's job. Do you have High and Low pressures? Is there ice buildup on the receiver? If you want to diagnose this yourslef there is a great group with some real experts to when it comes to AC. The group is on www.aircondtion.com. I did the AC on my vehicles and it's not that bad when you have a good understanding and a team of experts backing you up. Like this group. George -- Original message -- Talked to my indy yesterday.
