Yes!
You can purchase the R134A refrigerant (freon) at just about any auto parts store.
R134a is all that is available If you have an R12 system You have to retrofit to R134a I didn't go through the hassle of changing the entire system to r134a I just recharged the system with the new freon and it's working just fine. The coolant even last longer.
The system is very dirty from the first compressor that went out....... If you just replaced the a/c compressor without changing the expansion tube, the accumulator and flushing out the complete system then it will never work correctly......
yes you can!! just get a belt from auto parts place for your car without air...
The 134a plus just has PAG oil added already, so that you (theoretically) don't have to add it after adding the R134a.
I was just looking at one of these tonight. Advance Auto has them for 37.00. I am going to have to get one to replace my compressor just hope it isn't a two to three day job doing it. BigJohnJ
You do not pour oil into an ac compressor, It goes in just like the "freon",,,under pressure. You can but an oil charge kit from any good auto parts store but only use it if you absolutely know it needs oil. Too much will ruin the compressor and clog the separator.
You should just let the system take the refrigerant out of the can by itself. It is not good to force liquid r134a into the low pressure side of the ac. The suction of the compressor will draw the r134 out by itself and stabilize the system as it goes, it may just take longer than you want.
R134a, just like any other vehicle for that model year.
On all years, makes and models you will need to go to any automotive a/c repair shop and have them reclaim this for you.... (Do not just let it out in the atmosphere this is illegal)....... Depending of if your have R-12 freon or R134A freon you can buy the R134a freon at any auto parts store but you need to be licensed to buy R-12 freon.........
You can find air compressors just about anywhere. Auto Zone, Walmart and online at Amazon. They can probably be found at your local hardware store as well.
If you want constant air movement in you home leave the fan on. If you just want the fan to cycle on with the compressor, move the switch to auto. It does not harm the fan either way.
