A/C Question
#1
I am getting ready to recharge the air conditioning on my '94 GXE but I am unsure whether or not my car is running R-134 or R-12 refrigerant. The dealer I take my car to said there are a fair number of '94 Maximas running around with R-12 (That baffled me because I thought Federal law mandated that the manufacturers switch to R134 in 1992 ). Is there an easy way to tell which type of refrigerant I am running?

A/C...
A simple way to check is to look at the fittings where the refrigerant is charged into the system. Simply speaking if the fittings on both the low side and the high side has threads on them then there is a good chance that is uses R-12. If it looks like a quick disconnect type fitting then it uses R-134a. Hope that helps.
