Hi, can anybody help, I need my aircon recharging, I have some leak sealer to be added to the system for surety, and I have my own gas bottle of R12 which I want used as it meets the original spec and is better as a refrigerant gas than the new stuff, I need the Schrader fittings to allow me to connect up or somebody with the right fittings, don't mind a drive out to see someone, just need some help getting the fecking gas into the system!!

 

Thanks

Exactly - what he said mate.....

 

.....Quack Fart only refill newer cars with R143. So if your ZX is running the old R12 (like most of us) then you either need the drop-in replacement or get a specialist who knows their stuff to fill with R12 (or equivalent). I recommend searching locally for such a specialist; or asking JeffTT which sub-contractor he uses.

Funnily enough i had to do a survey on all the machines in our work place, and most of them run R404a , and when i looked under the bonnet of the zed i saw a sticker in Japanese telling me to use R404a :) .

Next time we have the refrigeration guy in, ill have to get him to fill mine
