You can't.

You have to be certified to mess with it.

I wouldn't try it my self cause its a very long ******* process cause you got to take the air conditioning compressor and empty all the r12 and then recharge the r134a and make sure your air condinter is on when recharging it and make sure it is holding pressure.

you just run it into the ac system via the low pressure port -- same as putting in the r134a. if you buy a kit the oil should already be mixed in with the r134a cans. just read the instructions, it's pretty self explanatory. hth

you can use ester.

make sure you don't contaminate the system

once u do that you fuckup your ac system!

I suggest u do it the right way get the pressure gauge, leak tester etc.. put some dye in it while u at it if it leaks you can find it with black light
