I have a 72' GMC with Factory A/C which blows cool, and I want to get the system recharged. I called a local guy and he said the R-12 would cost $240 or he could change the system to the134 system. He said it wouldn't be as cold as the R-12 .Is there any advantages or disadvantages with either system?Should I change the system or should I get the system charged with the R-12?. and what all has to be done to change it over?.Is there any type of freon that replaces R-12 , and you don't have to change the system, another guy told me he has a type,but didn't tell me what it was. Thank you everyone. Dave
