My 91 with R 12 is not blowing cold anymore
Could be a leak or something else
If a leak I need to convert to 134a.

Can anyone recommend a knowledgeable shop in the lower mainland?

I think sooner or later we have to order the Honda coversion kit and go to 134 a
Would like to find a shop that is knowledgeable in this sort of repair.
 
Another question
There is a A/C sight glass in front of the radiator.
Is there a certain colour it should be (or not be)?
 
Should be quite clear with bubbles until pressure builds. Watch it as the compressor and AC fans cycle on and off

Have watched the sight glass as the A/C and fans cycled on and off.
Just very very fine gray bubbles moving across the lens.
Not clear at all
Must be contaminated
Time for a 134a retrofit kit methinks
 
Is one freon tube hot and one cold after its been running for a while.
If one is cold, then you should be getting that cold coming through your vents, unless your head unit isn't opening the proper valves.
Don't get your fingers caught in AC belt on your engine while your checking this out.
p.s. Do you have a belt?
