The air conditioner is not putting out very cold air and I came across a web site that states thieir system will retrofit my AC system.
It is called Freeze 12 which is compatible with mineral, ester and PAG oils. This replaces R-12 or 134a systems and works with existing lubricants.
They have a Quick Charge kit for $60.00 which contains 3 cans of Freeze 12, 1 Freeze 12 (can tap), 1 charging hose, 1 pair of
high and low side service port fittings which fit directly ove R12 fittings and a label
I don't know if this info helps but I could use a little input becaus one mechanic said there is nothing you could do. I thought you could at least convet over to q 134 system if the cost wasn.T prohibitive.
Thank you

Id convert to 134a before I installed some "freeze air" style product. If it worked good the factory would use it. Have you had gauges put on the system to see if the pressures are correct for the refrigerant that you are presently using? It may just be a little low and need a service (vacuum down, recharge)
