Re: re- gassing air conditioning
Nothing nasty about R12, its just not environmentally friendly, if you want nasty then some unscrupulous B's recharge aircon systems with propane, it will work just fine but god help you if you were to have a front end crashdp bradford wrote: Older air con systems used a far nastier refrigerant (R12 ???).

Re: running hot; when should cooling fan be running?
My fan/s cut in at 94 (when it's running right) measuring from top hose outlet, takes it down to around 84-85, but unless the stat is working properly, even if the fans kick in, there won't be enough coolant flowing through it for the fans to do anything. I used Holts 2 part rad flush & as Ady ...

Re: running hot; when should cooling fan be running?
