If one were to use a single gauge set to check both R-12 and R-134a
cars, would it be safest to check the R-134a first, then the R-12?

There is a 6.0 cfm, 2-stage Robinair, $240 at thetoolwarehouse.net.
They also have gauge sets from $65 to $130.
Am I fishing to shallow?
Looks OK. Pawn shop price for both around here would be $150
on a good day.

My $9 HF pump outperforms the 1.5CFM Robinair unit at the local shop
for both CFM and inches of Mercury, so I've never had any problems with it.

Wow! good tip. I use one of the HF air/vacuum boxes with an old soda fire
extinguisher to pull the oil out of the crankcase, but it never occurred to
me to use it to pull a vacuum for refr.

I'm by no means an expert, but here's my $0.02. I've had good luck
with Yellow Jacket gauges. If you are going to be doing both R12 and
R134a, make sure you get 2 separate gauge setups. The combo unit is
just asking for cross-contamination. I have also had excellent
success with the Harbor
I plan to spend the money and need help with the route to take. This is for
DIY only but counting family we're talking about seven vehicles, with three
needing help right now. I think my silver SDL ate the pump, the others won't
be as bad.
