Ferrari Mailing List: Re: GTB and...

[Doug and Terri Anderson (dnt]

Ayep - out of a can - something you may truly trust.  What do you get at a
friendly AC store is what they got - should be good shit man, but just like
Fat Freddie in the Fury Freak Bros - ya just may end up with a cut of
oregano in the mix.  Yeah, individual cans are good, especially if they show
a bit of rust.

         When I re-did my old Golf's AC, I preferred to keep it R-12 rather 
than convert.
         I went to www.epatest.com/, and paid $20 to get an EPA 609 
certification.  The EPA 609 cert allows you to legally buy R-12.  You 
download the manual, then take an open-book test online.  It's REALLY hard 
to fail, as all the answers are in the manual.
         I bought my R-12 on eBay, you'll pay around $20-25 a can.  Two or 
three cans will set you back $50-60 or so.  You're supposed to email the 
seller a copy of your EPA 609 cert, but not all sellers require you do 
that.  I recharge my own systems, don't know if you could show up at an AC 
shop with cans of R-12 and have them do the recharge.
