The
best way to transfer freon is with a reclaimer pump. Put the tank that you'll be
putting all the freon in ice. It will take the freon faster than trying to pump
against higher pressures. A freon recycling,recovery machine is needed.

That doesn't make any sense. All freons are separate and can

use separate gauges for 134A.

Thanks for confirming that. I had also heard that the coil voltage could
regulate spark plug gap. I.E. Accel or better means you can go from .035 to
