My trucks AC system is empty, no refridgerant. I have a wagoneer that the ac works great. Is there any way to transfer from one truck to the other?

There are several R12 direct replacements out there and are cheaper than converting.to R134.

Freeze12 is junk. You get what you pay for. Oh and if your ac is empty that means it has a leak because refrigerant doesn't just disappear. so fix the leak before putting refrigerant in it.

I have to disagree. I have used Freeze 12 on two vehicles over the last several years. No problems. Cools great. It is a lot cheaper then doing a quality conversion to R-134.

I was in Mexico again recently, was in an autopart store. Saw the huge rack of R-12 cans (with DuPont logos) sitting there on the shelf. 1 lb charges for a few bucks a piece, its so tempting. Anyway, I bring this up since youre by Canada. Can you fill R-12 there? I know Canada is more progressive than Mexico so maybe not. Just thought I'd throw it out there.

R413 is a direct replacement. And it was pretty piggin' cold in July. That is until my condenser went pop.
