    All vehicles in the USA use R134a by law.  No other refrigerants can
be used
in order to prevent mixing apon servicing, or recycling.  Something to think
about, if you are going to use any of these other refrigerants.  I have
both R12
and R134a recycling machines.  Every system I service has to be tested
for its
contents first.  So far I've had to turn away 3 vehicles, because of
unidentified
substance in the system.
