Has Anyone Recharged Their Car's A/C With This Product?
http://acprocold.com/about/
I rarely use the A/C in my car, but when I turned it on the other day, I noticed that the supply air wasn't nearly cold enough. I can feel the compressor kicking in and the fan is obviously working, so I'm thinking about giving it a try rather than taking it in for an anal-raping service. Thanks. |

Take it to a pro and retain both of your hands and all of your fingers.

That product in particular? No. But it's just normal 134a refrigerant. A/C Pro is just the marketing the shit out of a product that's been around for decades.
You can find cheaper solutions that do the same thing. What I'd recommend is get a quality r134a hose, and just buy the cheap refill bottles. You can do the same thing for about half the price of the A/C Pro version. And you'll be able to use the hose with any refill bottle you want.

He's right about this being a marketing thing, though.
Go to any auto-parts store and they will have that exact product on the shelf under a different name. It's extremely easy to use and if you drive your car in, they'll find the proper nozzle for you and show you how to use it. Just drive to the nearest Napa or O'Reilly and you'll be fine. If you look especially pathetic (and I'm positive by your posts that you do), they'll probably just do it for you.

You Tube is your friend. You can pretty much find a video of somebody doing anything if you look hard enough. I was able to replace the trigger assembly in my rifle by myself after watching a video of somebody else doing it. It was a pain in the ass, and I cussed and yelled and screamed pretty much the whole time and my thumbs felt like I'd slammed them in a car door when I was finished, but I did it. And there was a time I would have never believed I was capable of doing such a thing.
It also helps if the guy in the video is some mouth-breathing idiot, because then you know if he can do it, you can do it. BTW, I'm sure this particular operation is nowhere near as annoying/complex as replacing a trigger assembly. |

Go to Autozone, buy a can of all one a/c recharge, follow directions. Quite easy. It comes with can/hose/meter and it takes about as much skill as being able to plug an air pump into a bicycle tire.

True as long as you don't mix the high and low pressure ends up.

Well that is a good thing. It has been years, but when I was knocking out Honda's they were the same size. I did a lot of them back in those days and never screwed one up.
