I have a '94 Chevy Astro with over 200000 miles. The A/C has never had problems until the about a month ago. I can tell the fan is working and all that good stuff, but I believe it is out of freon. I was just wondering what kind of freon to get and if I could recharge it myself. I hate taking it into dealers and the shops around here have been ripping all of my friends off for everything.
