Im not an expert on the whole ac deal but I dont think you can
just put the freeon in yourself.

there was a problem before with the compatabilities of the oil. pag and mineral. but now everything is cool. but you need to change the fittings to charge an r 12 system with r 134

I had R12 in my car but it was running low...I found some stuff on eBay called Maxifrige or something like that. It is compatible with R12(and r134a I think)and now I have cold A/C! The mechanic quoted me price OVER a grand but got fixed for about $30 including Freon, shipping, and hose to tap can. This was a couple of months ago and it is still cold.

So wait, r13 can go right into an r12 system now without problems with mixing oils now your saying? can't that harm the compressor and evap core, etc.?? please let me know, would be so much easier if I can just thow 134a in my car, but I still have a small amount of 12 left in it.
