Within the last month I bought from the original owner a 89 Cherokee. The AC
had required recharging frequently over the years and her mechanic no longer
had r12. I evacuated the systen and put in 2 cans of R134 one containing
conditioner and compatable oil and it's working fine sofar. I can tell where
it's been leaking because there was a oil/dirt build up around a fitting. I've
refilled older r12 systems with r134 a few times on VW's and have found if the
system was sound and just low on refigerant that it would work well.

Re: AC not blowing cool air
It might be if your domain is in Norway and your local laws allow
freon sales. You'd need a set of guages. Probably a good idea to
find and fix the leak first.

Maybe not... I had our '92 Volvo converted, and it was only $175 INCLUDING the
gen-u-wine Volvo parts kit for the conversion... it was going to be at least
that to recharge it with Freon, due to the cost of the stuff.

Wrong! R-402A or FR-12 is a direct replacement.
