Bring the Cold Air Back to Your Classic Car Is your vintage vehicle blowing hot air? Restoring the air conditioning in an older car doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. Our R12 Replacement Kit is the ultimate DIY solution designed specifically for classic cars and vehicles manufactured before 1994.
This all-in-one package provides everything you need to recharge an R12 system safely and efficiently, without the need for a costly conversion to R134a.
What’s Included in the Kit:
-
2x Replacement Refrigerant Cans: High-performance hydrocarbon refrigerant that acts as a direct substitute for old R12 gas. It is efficient, eco-friendly, and non-ozone depleting. Two cans are typically sufficient to fully recharge most passenger vehicle systems.
-
1x Premium Charging Hose: A durable hose equipped with a pressure gauge, allowing you to monitor the system pressure while filling to ensure a perfect charge.
-
1x R12 Adapter (Retrofit): The crucial link for older vehicles. This adapter converts your car’s old threaded service port (Low Side) to accept the modern quick-coupler hose included in the kit.
Why Choose This R12 Alternative Kit?
-
No Mechanic Required: Designed for the “Do-It-Yourself” enthusiast. Simply connect the adapter, attach the hose, and fill.
-
Safe & Compatible: Our replacement gas is compatible with the oil and components found in older R12 AC systems.
-
Cost-Effective: Avoid the high price of retrofitting your entire AC system at a workshop.
-
Efficient Cooling: Get ice-cold air that rivals or exceeds the performance of the original Freon system.
How to Use:
-
Locate the low-pressure port on your vehicle’s AC system.
-
Screw on the included R12 adapter.
-
Connect the charging hose to the can and the adapter.
-
Fill the system while monitoring the gauge until the compressor engages and cold air flows.
Note: Always check your vehicle’s specific capacity requirements before filling.
