Cubpak89, they sell R134 retrofit kits that work well. I've done a couple with no problems and did not have to buy any extra parts. It's been a few years, but the kits were available at Wallyworld. Something like this:
IDQ - Auto A/C Products & Sealing Solutions

 

use the new stuff, just replace the acumulater

 

thanks every one for the help and information i will be checking into wallyworld sometime today as i will there

 

R12 to R134a "drop-in Kits" are available at local auto parts, full kit consists of PAC oil for compressor , Freon, and adaptors for high and low side access ports. sticker to apply to evaporator box with info required by some/most states. most all require a certified ACCA Tech to do the retro fit.

 

thanks ill look around again to see if theres a shop close by and wont screw me over on a price i was gonna just wait and have my dad do it but i think ill just swallow my pride on this one and take it to someone who s acca tech

 

You might check A-Z: Quest/R134a high mileage recharge and retro fit kit (323) | Freon Charging Kit | AutoZone.com_

They may be able to give you some pointers and I understand they have some loaner tools to do the job right.

In reading up a little on this, I found that it is more complicated than I knew it was when I did it (with no problems). Sometimes ignorance can be helpful.

Anyway, seems like it might be a good idea to wait for your dad to give you a hand. Having someone who knows what they are doing and will share their knowledge with you is a very good thing! Who knows, you might have to do this again at some point down the road!

 

thanks again everyone i have to put my truck on the back burner until i can get my car fixed so it will most likley be 3 months before i can get around to it
thanks again thow

 

would be new its a 30 lb keg of r12 30 lbs keg R12 refrigerant (brand new still sealed)
this is the link but how can it be brand new when its no longer aloud to be used ????

 

It cannot be made anymore, you can definitely use it still. If it were me, I'd go wit the R134a rout just because if ... something happens and all that refrigerant spills out, you wont be crying if it does. R134A is way cheaper ...

 

im jsut gonn do the retro fit i posted that casue i wanted t know if it was still good
plus in order to by that much you have to have a liscence
anyway i the retro fit will be hapening next month
