Back when R-12 was still being made and holes in the ozone layer were
unknown, when dirt was young, we used it like a solvent. Turn a 75# bottle
upside down on a bench, screw on a short piece of air hose with a non-OHSA
approved air nozzle. That stuff will clean injectors and like stuff and
leave no residue. Couldn't afford to use it like that today, and you could
go to jail if you did.
