Usually you can tell based on the year of the car. Since yours is a 1996, it's fairly safe to say it uses the newer R-134a.

Answeri work for autozone and i know that in 1995 the law requird that all cars made must user-134a do to the ozone. to confirm you could call your local auto parts store of a Chevy dealer with the question and they can tell you

What kind of freon goes in a 1994 Chevy S-10 Blazer?

If I remember correctly, the 94 Blazer used R134a. But, if you're not certain, the sticker should tell you. Look in rear corner of the engine compartment, on the passenger side.. there'll be a plastic housing for the HVAC compartment. The sticker should be on there. If it isn't, the schrader valves will tell you - if there are threads on the outside of those valves, it was originally an R12 system. If the valves are the quick connect type, with no threads, it's an R134a system. If you have the R12 valves, I'd recommend strongly that you have a refrigerant purity test done to see whether or not the system was retrofitted R134a... in most such retrofits, a complete conversion was not done, and the R12 schrader valves are often retained in retrofitted systems.
