Has anyone heard of this product as a substitute for R12? A local mechanic is recommending to charge a can or so into my system of R12 on my vette. |headscratch|

Thanks Gary, great link and article. The AC guy was going to add a can of this to my R12, looks like that is the wrong answer. I have since found someone locally with $$$ R12 $$$. Hopefully I won't need too much. |thumb|

Do not add Freeze 12 to your system. And do not convert to Freeze 12. It is crap.

Go to R143A if you need to change.

Yes. It is a substitute for the original R-12. You don't have to retrofit anything. I had it put in my '66 Impala after buying six cans of R-12 (still have them) and a 134 kit (still unused).

I use the freeze 12 in my car, it works well to top of the system, I have had no problems. You can still get r12 if the service place has a license to use it.You will pay alot for it but it is out there. If you change to 134 you will not be happy unless you change your condensor & dryer.
