R10-(flammable) is the lowest flammabilty hazard - R11-Highly flammable and R12 Extremely flammable are greater hazards.
Refrigerants such as R12, R502, R22, R134a, and newer blends contain either chlorine or fluorine and will hydrolyze with moisture or water forming hydrochloric or hydrofluoric acids and more water. Which makes motor windings deteriorate, metal corrosion and sludge which is a mixture of water acid and oil. Hope this helps, Scott
R1 - Explosive when dry. R2 - Riskof explosion by shock, friction, fire or other sources of ignition. R3 - Extreme risk of explosion by shock, friction, fire or other sources of ignition. R4 - Forms very sensitive explosion. R5 - Heating may cause an explosion. R6 - Explosive with or without contact with air. R7 - May cause fire. R8 - Contact with combustible material may cause fire. R9 - Explosive when mixed with combustible material. R10 - Flamable. R11 - Highly Flamable. R12 - Extremely Flammable. R13 - Extremely Flammable liquified gas. R14 - Reacts violently with water.

It came with R12. Due to the high cost of R12, I suggest you convert it to R134a.
If you mix r12 with r134 air conditioning system, it will cause a high pressure in your airconditioning system and eventually damage the compressor and the evaporator. R12 is only for r12 aircon and something with r134, it can't be mix.
R-12..........
It came from the factory with R12. Due to the high cost of R12, I would have it converted to R134.
There is only one Freon, and that is R12. R12 Freon came installed in your 1991 Chevy. It may or may not have been changed over to R134 Refrigerant. If not change it over, as the cost of R12 is unbelievably high an is no longer in production.

how to convert r12 to134r
It came from the factory with R12. Due to the extremely high cost of R12, I would suggest you convert it to R134a. Kits are available at most auto parts stores.

No, if you mix them they will form a gel and ruin the compressor. You will have to have the system evacuated and replaced with the new refrigerant.
