The only places here that do auto AC are the dealerships, $125/hr, I actually didn't know anyone with AC until the mid 70's (my dad) and we NEVER used it, only was about 2 weeks a year it was hot enough to use it BUT the last 3 or 4 years are a different story (global warming....yep) it was 33 Celsius here today and hit 40 a few times last year (I still don't know metric, but it was HOT!) so anyway the guy I get my R12 from "vampires" it from systems he is discharging because he can't get rid of it so it is/was cheap...... no one would take it!.......he runs a rad shop. He charged me $25.00 to leak test and refill it on my daughters car a couple years ago, not sure about now. What do you check the pressure with? A good tire gauge? Dumb question but I really don't have any experience with AC.[/align]
