Hmm, Lew, there might be a problem.  I forgot a license is required
to buy, sell, or handle this stuff.  I have the license, otherwise I
couldn't have bought this from AutoZone several years back.  Maybe
you have one too, in case you are interested in it.

  Hey guys

   

  I made a deal yesterday on a Ford 9600 with air conditioner not working.  It
  hasn't been delivered yet but I'm trying to get a little info ahead of time.
  It may be nothing more than the belt (wishful thinking probably) as it don't
  have one on it; compressor clutch center turns by hand tho so I don't think
  it's locked up like the guy said he thought it was.  I'm familiar enough
  with automotive type air to fix it but I feel sure it's an r12 unit; no tag
  saying it's been converted to 134.

   

  I'd heard something about this a few years ago; there's a product called
  Freeze 12 (& doing a Google search I found another one; Enviro Safe) that
  supposedly don't require all the oil changing, etc. that 134 does; you just
  evacuate the system & put it in (of course if it's leaked the old out I'll
  fix the leak & put a new dryer on it).  Anyone ever used either of these
  products?  Looks like they'd be the way to go IF they work satisfactorily.

   

  Input appreciated!
