Subject:      it's time to deal with the A/C in the south - getting rid of R-12
Comments: To: Vanagon@VANAGON.COM

I'm about ready to plunge ahead and get rid of the R-12 in the A/C and
was looking to collect experiences.  The "quick fix" is to completely
recover (evacuate) the R-12 and install a full charge of an R-12 substitute.
I'd love to hear from anyone WRT that option.


The main concern/problem here is the hose quality on the Vanagon.  Has anyone
been able to verify if the stock A/C hoses are nitrile or not?


Specifically I'm interested in model years 86 and up.


TIA - Frank
