not sure why you doubt everything I say mugen20b

I agree but you always like to keep things on case one day you may need them again. as you do in automotive.

What colour are the bottles!

mugenb20b, Jan 11, 7:35am
It does! Aeroplanes burning avgas do much less harm to the ozone, eh!

Horder lol . yea my sheds full too

johnf_456, Jan 11, 7:46am
haha not that bad, it use to be before I cleaned it out a year ago. but its just more the time needed to clean out amongst family and work. Its on my list to do so I can work on my project chev under cover lol.

Its surprising what you do use years down the track to imprivise for projects haha.

its under a pile of stuff ill look tomorrow mugen20b. I had a few bottles left from doing top ups and aircon work a few years ago.

mugenb20b, Jan 11, 8:00am
Relax, I'm just ship stirring. I've got two bottles + a half a dozen little ones (500g !).

Pre 1994 airconditioning in a car was much colder than the units since 1994.I remember driving new Mazda 626s around 1992 with fitted air and they really were cold compared to todays cars.

Yep, I had an import 1988 Mazda Capella 4WD with a GT twin cam motor. The A/C used to freeze my balls off.

I remember that in those older cars, I use to run it with the heater on to try level out the temps.

Found out the price the guy was asking for the R134a air con gear, too dear actually so I'm toying around with either going to the R413 or R406 route.
Which would be the better option reliablity wise!

johnf_456, Jan 12, 3:45am

actually he was caught letting gas escape while working on a frig in a petrol station, he was narked on by another friggie who just happened to be in the petrol station at the time. i know the guy that got caught & also the guy who narked. the nark was an ahole who copped a lot of crap because of it.

Interesting comment and one that I'd like to hear more on by any AC specialists here.

when i was changing from 12 to 49L in commercial systems i had to bump the pressure switches up as 49L was more efficient & produced a colder air off temp. also in cars you'd have to reduce the airflow if you had a crotch vent in the drivers seat as both men & women complained of chilly genital area. another fact is 49L has a larger molecule so if you had a slow leak, it got slower.
