Getting the stuff sounds like a good idea. Not sure why I haven’t done it before now. I suppose I’ll have to have a little YouTube fest on figuring out how to find the leaks and assess what I need to do. Bob R Sent from my iPhone > On May 7, 2019, at 7:42 AM, Dan Penoff via Mercedes > wrote

If you’re so inclined, you can get everything you need to service AC systems at Harbor Fright for under $200, if that. I did it about 3-4 years ago and have paid for the stuff many, many times over. Living in FL it’s almost a requirement to have the stuff. -D > On May 7, 2019, at 10:22 AM, J

Look up Arizona Refrigeration. If you are a "certified AC " guy [short test you can do online to become one] they will sell you all the R12 you need. Keep it original, it will blow cold. Fix what ever leaks, AZ Refrig can make up new hoses for you, just take in the old ones. Corner of McDowell and
