Greetings, fellow humans. I'm in possession of one '92 Toyota Previa with A/C that needs filling badly. The thing is that it has been using refrigerant of the type "R13". And the a/c filling shops around here all claim never having heard of such. Their response is along the lines: "It's R12, not R13. There is no such thing as R13". However there is "R13" printed on the instrument panel, below the speedo, and I would be tempted to believe it is not just a practical joke on behalf of frustrated Toyota workers.
So help me out here if you can. What kind of refrigerant (that is commonly available) I can safely ask my friendly a/c shop to fill the Previa up with?
