Hi,
I have an 88 Accord, which I might keep as R12. The system has leaked out all its freon and hasn't been used for the last 4 years. Suppose I pump it down, and it does not hold a vacuum for 20 min. What do I fill it with to find the leak?
Thanks
u should use nitrogen and a small amount of refrigerant but if i were u i would convert to r134a its alot cheaper the kit contains 134a-ref. with oil and stop leak in the same can it works great
Thanks for the reply. I would convert but my Keihin compressor is incompatible. As for the nitrogen, I got a price of $60 for a 20 cu ft tank--no idea if that's a good size--plus $18 for the gas. Then over $110 for a regulator :-(
I was considering buying a portable 10 gal 115 psi air tank for $40 from harbor freight and getting it filled with nitrogen. Anyone have any other ideas?
