I know a few of y'all are running this stuff in your rigs.

As the wife and I haven't made up our minds on a rig yet, it looks as though I will be once again pulling the trailer this summer with the '91 Suburban.  I really need to address the AC for the summer.  It needs a recharge but it is an r12 system.

Is this stuff legal in the People's Republic of California?  Rumors of flammability seem exaggerated but give me pause.


Anyways I would appreciate hearing any experience you guys have with this stuff.

I had posted this a year ago:
