Yes, it came from the factory with R12. R12 was used up until late 1995. I suggest you convert it over to R134.
Check the ports to add freon--the low side is a large hose --the high pressure is the small line--on the large line if the valve is the large style----the freon is R134--if the valve is the small style it is R12--no longer used --retro valves are available to convert R12 systems to R134 R12 fittings can't be connected to R134 gauges, and vice versa. If it's R12 you won't be able to connect the hose from the supply can to fill it, or do anything else with R134 equipment.
This is the transition year. It can be R12 or R134. It is listed on the unit. The fact that R12 is no longer being produced makes it extremely expensive. Convert it to R134.
Buy a kit at Wal-Mart or auto parts--will have instructions
passenger side wheel well under the plastic cover toward the front, pop the push pins to get the cover off and reveal the valve, it takes R134, not freon.
It takes R134. R12 is no longer used in vehicles produced around 1990 and newer. Every vechicle from 95 and on uses R134A. Some cars may have even started converting over to r134 as early as 93 but officially EVERY VEHICLE from 95 and on has r134
To convert an R12 system to R134 all of the R12 will have to be removed. The system will have to be completely flushed out then special additives installed. This is done due to the way the different Freon's react to the systems gaskets. After this is done then the system is ready to be set up with new Freon.
R134
R12 unless it has been converted. I would convert it over to R134 due to the price of R12.
R134 .... IS freon.
r134
Unless it has been converted over to R134 it came with R12. I suggest you convert it to R134a. R12 is very expensive.
