Bottom line is that hydrocarbon refrigerants are more efficient and environmentally friendly than their fluorocarbon counterparts. If you are willing to accept the tiny risk of additional flammable gas in your vehicle then you are good to go.
Not trying to turn this into a refrigerant debate, it's your car you should do what you feel is best, just wanted to give you a personal experience point (I'm not selling the stuff). |
You are gonna give leathermang a heart attack.
I'm curious, is this what you'd use?

Would the R12 can taps fit these cans? Would the spray nozzles leak air into the can during charge?
My 85 is currently running well with R134A, I have 6 cans of Envirosafe ES12A and a nearly full 30 lb R12 cylinder on the shelf. I really want to try the Envirosafe and then the R12 but the 134A is working well enough, I don't want to waste it.
