Emory, Did you use the "duraseal" mentioned in the article?
Have yet to read anything bad about Duracool so I do see it in my future

emerystora wrote on Mon, 06 April 2015 12:02It is true. The Duracool molecule is much larger than the R12 molecule and the R134a molecule is smaller than the R12.
Before I installed Duracool the first time I used to have to add one can of R12 per year. After installing Duracool I went 5 years without having to install any more. I had to replace a hose so eventually I did reinstall Duracool.
The R12 was probably leaking from the compressor clutch seal.

Duracool is a win win on the GMC but think twice if you install it in a later model vehicle. My Dodge minivan has a computerized AC system and the head pressure with Duracool was too low for the cooling fans to come on.
